[PATCH -tip] perf_counter tools: check for valid cache operations

[Jaswinder Singh Rajput]

Made new table for cache operartion stat 'hw_cache_stat' as :
 L1I : Read and prefetch only
 ITLB and BPU : Read-only

introduce is_cache_op_valid() for cache operation validity

And checks for valid cache operations.
