Subject: [PATCH 1/8] perf: add PMU_RANGE_ATTR() helper for use by sw-like pmus

Add PMU_RANGE_ATTR() and PMU_RANGE_RESV() (for reserved areas) which
generate functions to extract the relevent bits from
event->attr.config{,1,2} for use by sw-like pmus where the
'config{,1,2}' values don't map directly to hardware registers.
