[V6 10/11] power8, perf: Adapt BHRB PMU configuration to work with SW filters

[Anshuman Khandual]

Powerpc kernel now supports SW based branch filters for book3s systems with some
specifc requirements while dealing with HW supported branch filters in order to
achieve overall OR semantics prevailing in perf branch stack sampling framework.
This patch adapts the BHRB branch filter configuration to meet those protocols.
POWER8 PMU can only handle one HW based branch filter request at any point of time.
For all other combinations PMU will pass it on to the SW.
