powerpc/ptrace: Enable support for Performance Monitor registers
This patch enables support for Performance monitor registers related
ELF core note NT_PPC_PMU based ptrace requests through
PTRACE_GETREGSET, PTRACE_SETREGSET calls. This is achieved
through adding one new register sets REGSET_PMU in powerpc
corresponding to the ELF core note sections added in this
regard. It also implements the get, set and active functions
for this new register sets added.
