[PATCH v6 1/2] perf,kvm/powerpc: Add kvm_perf.h for powerpc

To analyze the exit events with perf, we need to export the related
tracepoints through kvm_perf.h. kvm_perf.h is to be added in the
arch/powerpc directory, where the kvm tracepoints needed to trace the
KVM exit events are defined.

To indicate that the tracepoints are book3s_hv specific, suffix _HV has
been added to the tracepoint macros. Additionally, we also need to
define the generic macros (albeit, with null strings) suffix, because
the preprocessor looks for them in the generic code in builtin-kvm.c.

Changes since v5:
- Moved back the tracepoint definitions from kvm_perf_book3s.h to kvm_perf.h
