I think one of the main reasons to add the vector registers into PEBS
records is because of the large PEBS. So perf can get all the interested
registers and avoid a PMI for each sample.
Technically, I don't think there is a problem supporting them in
non-PEBS PMI sampling. But I'm not sure if it's useful in practice.

The REGS_USER should be more useful. The large PEBS is also available as
long as exclude_kernel.

In my opinion, we may only support the new vector registers for both
REGS_USER and REGS_INTR with PEBS events for now. We can add the support
for non-PEBS events later if there is a requirement.

Thanks,
Kan
