[PATCH 2/2] perf Documentation: remove duplicated docs for powerpc cpu specific events

Listing specific events doesn't actually help us at all here because:
 - these events actually vary between different ppc processors, they
   aren't garunteed to be present.
 - the documentation of the file contents is now duplicated by the
   docs for arbitrary event file contents.

-Description:	POWER-systems specific performance monitoring events
-
-		A collection of performance monitoring events that may be
-		supported by the POWER CPU. These events can be monitored
-		using the 'perf(1)' tool.
-
-		These events may not be supported by other CPUs.
-
-		The contents of each file would look like:
-
-			event=0xNNNN
-
-		where 'N' is a hex digit and the number '0xNNNN' shows the
-		"raw code" for the perf event identified by the file's
-		"basename".
-
-		Further, multiple terms like 'event=0xNNNN' can be specified
-		and separated with comma. All available terms are defined in
-		the /sys/bus/event_source/devices/<dev>/format file.
