   hwpmc: Initial support for AMD IBS

   This patch adds support for AMD IBS.  It adds a new class of performance
   counter that cotains two events: ibs-fetch and ibs-op events. Unlike
   most existing sampled events, IBS events provide a number of values
   containing extra information regarding the sample.  To support this we
   use the existing callchain event, and introduce a new flag for multipart
   payloads.  The first 8 bytes of the pc_sample contains a header that
   defines up to four payloads.
