[rfc 3/3] perf, x86: P4 PMU -- export ABI part of event config to userspace

[Cyrill Gorcunov]

Due to tight 64 bit size of event config field (where we have to track
pretty lot of info during event lifetime) some bits are to be exported
via header into userspace.

Note that I don't like much the idea to export anything into userspace
but it seems there is no other choise. So there is a minimum which should
be exported.
