powerpc: Add PPC_FEATURE_PSERIES_PERFMON_COMPAT 

Background from Maynard Johnson:
As of POWER6, a set of 32 common events is defined that must be
supported on all future POWER processors.  The main impetus for this
compat set is the need to support partition migration, especially from
processor P(n) to processor P(n+1), where performance software that's
running in the new partition may not be knowledgeable about processor
P(n+1).  If a performance tool determines it does not support the
physical processor, but is told (via the
PPC_FEATURE_PSERIES_PERFMON_COMPAT bit) that the processor supports
the notion of the PMU compat set, then the performance tool can
surface just those events to the user of the tool.

PPC_FEATURE_PSERIES_PERFMON_COMPAT indicates that the PMU supports at
least this basic subset of events which is compatible across POWER
processor lines.
