MIPS: Add perf counter feature
Add CPU feature for standard MIPS r2 performance counters, as determined
by the Config1.PC bit. Both perf_events and oprofile probe this bit, so
lets combine the probing and change both to use cpu_has_perf.
This will also be used for VZ support in KVM to know whether performance
counters exist which can be exposed to guests.
