[PATCH V3 35/35] selftest/powerpc/pmu: Add test for hardware cache events

From: Kajol Jain <kjain at linux.ibm.com>

The testcase checks if the transalation of a generic hardware cache
event is done properly via perf interface. The hardware cache events
has type as PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE and each event points to raw event
code id.

Testcase checks different combination of cache level,
cache event operation type and cache event result type and verify
for a given event code, whether transalation matches with the current
cache event mappings via perf interface.
