This patch provides basic enablement for perf branch stack sampling framework
on POWER8 processor with a new PMU feature called BHRB (Branch History Rolling
Buffer).

Um, why are you doing that?
There was no specific reason for that.
If it's code that should be in a header, put it in a header. If it's C
code, add it to the Makefile.
Sure I would get the new code in the Makefile. Thanks!

Anshuman
