SBI PMU extension defines a set of firmware events which can provide
useful information to guests about the number of SBI calls. As
hypervisor implements the SBI PMU extension, these firmware events
correspond to ecall invocations between VS->HS mode. All other firmware
events will always report zero if monitored as KVM doesn't implement them.

This patch adds all the infrastructure required to support firmware
events.

Here, and elsewhere, all branches of an if/else must use {} if one
branch needs them.
Patches 4 & 12 have similar issues, which checkpatch in the patchwork
CI stuff also complained about.

Thanks,
Conor.

We also need

I don't think this change initializing pmc is necessary, but OK.
