    xen/arm: Implement a dummy Performance Monitor for ARM32
    
    XSA-93 (commit 0b18220 "xen/arm: Don't let guess access to Debug and 
Performance
    Monitor registers") disable Performance Monitor.
    
    When CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS is enabled in the Linux Kernel, regardless the
    ID_DFR0 (which tell if Perfomance Monitors Extension is implemented) the
    kernel will try to access to PMCR.
    
    Therefore we tell the guest we have 0 counters. Unfortunately we must always
    support PMCCNTR (the cycle counter): we just RAZ/WI for all PM register,
    which doesn't crash the kernel at least.
