The perfmon interrupt is the sole user of a special variant of the
interrupt prolog which differs from the one used by external and timer
interrupts in that it saves the non-volatile GPRs and doesn't turn the
runlatch on.
The former is unnecessary and the later is arguably incorrect, so
let's clean that up by using the same prolog. While at it we rename
that prolog to use the _ASYNC prefix.
