This patch adds support for performance reporting private feature
for FPGA Management Engine (FME). Now it supports several different
performance counters, including 'basic', 'cache', 'fabric', 'vtd'
and 'vtd_sip'. It allows user to use standard linux tools to access
these performance counters.
I had a quick look at this, and it mostly looks alright to me. Just a few
high-level comments/questions:

  - I would still prefer for the PMU drivers to live under drivers/perf/

  - You should probably give the PMU a better name than "fme%d", for example
    "intel_fpga_dfl_fme%d".

  - CPU0 can be hotplugged off on non-x86 systems. How do you cope with
    that?

  - readq() will emit 2x32-bit reads on some architectures. What happens
    in this case?
