IMC trace-mode record has MSR[HV PR] bits added in the third DW.
These bits can be used to set the cpumode for the instruction pointer
captured in each sample.
Add support in kernel to use these bits to set the cpumode for
each sample.

Add the macros needed for IMC (In-Memory Collection Counters) trace-mode
and data structure to hold the trace-imc record data.
Also, add the new type "OPAL_IMC_COUNTERS_TRACE" in 'opal-api.h', since
there is a new switch case added in the opal-calls for IMC.

Since thread-imc internally use the core-imc hardware infrastructure
and is depended on it, having thread-imc in the kernel in the
absence of core-imc is trivial. Patch disables thread-imc, if
core-imc is not registered.

In memory Collection (IMC) counter pmu driver controls the ucode's
execution state. At the system boot, IMC perf driver pause the ucode.
Ucode state is changed to "running" only when any of the nest units
are monitored or profiled using perf tool.
Nest units support only limited set of hardware counters and ucode is
always programmed in the "production mode" ("accumulation") mode. This
mode is configured to provide key performance metric data for most of
the nest units.
But ucode also supports other modes which would be used for "debug" to
drill down specific nest units. That is, ucode when switched to
"powerbus" debug mode (for example), will dynamically reconfigure the
nest counters to target only "powerbus" related events in the hardware
counters. This allows the IMC nest unit to focus on powerbus related
transactions in the system in more detail. At this point, production
mode events may or may not be counted.
IMC nest counters has both in-band (ucode access) and out of band
access to it. Since not all nest counter configurations are supported
by ucode, out of band tools are used to characterize other nest
counter configurations.
Patch provides an interface via "debugfs" to enable the switching of
ucode modes in the system. To switch ucode mode, one has to first
pause the microcode (imc_cmd), and then write the target mode value to
the "imc_mode" file.
Proposed Approach:
In the proposed approach, the function (export_imc_mode_and_cmd) which
creates the debugfs interface for imc mode and command is implemented
in opal-imc.c. Thus we can use imc_get_mem_addr() to get the homer
base address for each chip.
The interface to expose imc mode and command is required only if we
have nest pmu units registered. Employing the existing data structures
to track whether we have any nest units registered will require to
extend data from perf side to opal-imc.c. Instead an integer is
introduced to hold that information by counting successful nest unit
registration. Debugfs interface is removed based on the integer count.
Example for the interface:
$ ls /sys/kernel/debug/imc
imc_cmd_0 imc_cmd_8 imc_mode_0 imc_mode_8

Remove the allocation of struct imc_events from imc_parse_event().
Instead pass imc_events as a parameter to imc_parse_event(), which is
a pointer to a slot in the array allocated in
update_events_in_group().

IMC_MAX_PMU is used for static storage (per_nest_pmu_arr) which holds
nest pmu information. Current value for the macro is 32 based on
the initial number of nest pmu units supported by the nest microcode.
But going forward, microcode could support more nest units. Instead
of static storage, patch to fix the code to dynamically allocate an
array based on the number of nest imc units found in the device tree.

Code to create platform device for the In-Memory Collection (IMC)
counters. Platform devices are created based on the IMC compatibility.
New header file created to contain the data structures and macros
needed for In-Memory Collection (IMC) counter pmu devices.
The device tree for IMC counters starts at the node "imc-counters".
This node contains all the IMC PMU nodes and event nodes for these IMC
PMUs. Device probe() parses the device to locate three possible IMC
device types (Nest/Core/Thread). Function then branch to parse each
unit nodes to populate vital information such as device memory sizes,
event nodes information, base address for reserve memory access (if
any) and so on. Simple bare-minimum shutdown function added which only
"stops" the engines.
