Currently perf-kvm uses string literals for kvm event names,
but it works only for x86, because other architectures may have
other names for those events.

This patch introduces defines for kvm_entry and kvm_exit events
and lets perf-kvm replace literals.

What about adding a new asm/kvm-perf.h header instead?

1) I don't like very much the namespace pollution that the first hunk causes (and the second one isn't really pretty either).

2) perf doesn't need most of uapi/asm/kvm.h, in fact it only needs a couple of #defines because it is a dependency of uapi/asm/svm.h. So it is uapi/asm/svm.h that should include uapi/asm/kvm.h, not perf.
