Subject: [RFC 4/7] arm64: pmu: Add function implementation to update event index in userpage.

In order to be able to access the counter directly for userspace,
we need to provide the index of the counter using the userpage.
We thus need to override the event_idx function to retrieve and
convert the perf_event index to armv8 hardware index.

Since the arm_pmu driver can be used by any implementation, even
if not armv8, two components play a role into making sure the
behaviour is correct and consistent with the PMU capabilities:

* the ARMPMU_EL0_RD_CNTR flag which denotes the capability to access
counter from userspace.
* the event_idx call back, which is implemented and initialized by
the PMU implementation: if no callback is provided, the default
behaviour applies, returning 0 as index value.
