The activity monitors extension is an optional extension introduced
by the ARMv8.4 CPU architecture. This implements basic support for
version 1 of the activity monitors architecture, AMUv1.

This support includes:
- Extension detection on each CPU (boot, secondary, hotplugged)
- Register interface for AMU aarch64 registers
- amu=[0/1/on/off/y/n] kernel parameter to disable detection and
  counter access at runtime
