Thresholding, a performance monitoring unit feature, can be
used to identify marked instructions which take more than
expected cycles between start event and end event.
Threshold compare (thresh_cmp) bits are programmed in MMCRA
register. In Power9, thresh_cmp bits were part of the
event code. But in case of P10, thresh_cmp are not part of
event code due to inclusion of MMCR3 bits.
Accidental resend, ignore.
