[PATCH 3/5] perf/POWER7: Make generic event translations available in sysfs

Make the generic perf events in POWER7 available via sysfs.

	$ ls /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/events
	branch-instructions
	branch-misses
	cache-misses
	cache-references
	cpu-cycles
	instructions
	stalled-cycles-backend
	stalled-cycles-frontend

	$ cat /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/events/cache-misses
	event=0x400f0

This patch is based on commits that implement this functionality on x86.
Eg:
	commit a47473939db20e3961b200eb00acf5fcf084d755
	Author: Jiri Olsa <jolsa at redhat.com>
