[PATCH v2 2/2] powerpc/perf: Check pmus_inuse flag in perf_event_print_debug()

pmu_inuse flag is part of lppaca struct which notifies the hypervisor
whether guest/partition is using PMUs. This provides a hint for
save/restore of PMU registers. Currently perf_event_print_debug()
does not check for pmu_inuse flag and it is not safe to use it to
dump PMU SPRs in a CONFIG_PSERIES.
Patch adds two things here. 1) An inline ppc_get_pmu_inuse() to get
the pmu_inuse value and 2)check in perf_event_print_debug() before
dumping the PMU SPRs.
ppc_get_pmu_inuse() is based on ppc_set_pmu_inuse() and includes same
CONFIG_ checks.
