Subject: [PATCH v3] perf: add support for the xtensa architecture

Tested using kernel tracepoints on a QEMU simulated environment. Kernel support
for perf depends on the patch "xtensa: enable HAVE_PERF_EVENTS", which is
scheduled for v3.14. Hardware performance counters are not supported under
xtensa yet.

v2: use the "core ID" field from /proc/cpuinfo (Max Filippov)
