perf: Adding sysfs group format attribute for pmu device
Adding sysfs group 'format' attribute for pmu device that contains a syntax description on how to construct raw events. The event configuration is described in following struct pefr_event_attr attributes: config config1 config2 Each sysfs attribute within the format attribute group, describes mapping of name and bitfield definition within one of above attributes. eg: "/sys/...<dev>/format/event" contains "config:0-7" "/sys/...<dev>/format/umask" contains "config:8-15" "/sys/...<dev>/format/usr" contains "config:16" the attribute value syntax is: line: config ':' bits config: 'config' | 'config1' | 'config2" bits: bits ',' bit_term | bit_term bit_term: VALUE '-' VALUE | VALUE Adding format attribute definitions for x86 cpu pmus.
