The parameters to the 24x7 HCALL have variable number of elements in them.
Set the minimum number of such elements to 1 rather than 0 and eliminate
the temporary structures.

This would enable us to submit multiple counter requests and process
multiple results from a single HCALL (in a follow on patch).

Retrieves and parses the 24x7 catalog on POWER systems that supply it
(right now, only POWER 8). Events are exposed via sysfs in the standard
fashion, and are all parameterized.

	$ cd /sys/bus/event_source/devices/hv_24x7/events

	$ cat HPM_CS_FROM_L4_LDATA__PHYS_CORE
	domain=0x2,offset=0xd58,core=?,lpar=0x0

	$ cat HPM_TLBIE__VCPU_HOME_CHIP
	domain=0x4,offset=0x358,vcpu=?,lpar=?

where user is required to specify values for the fields with '?' (like
core, vcpu, lpar above), when specifying the event with the perf tool.

Catalog is (at the moment) only parsed on boot. It needs re-parsing
when a some hypervisor events occur. At that point we'll also need to
prevent old events from continuing to function (counter that is passed
in via spare space in the config values?).

24x7 (also called hv_24x7 or H_24X7) is an interface to obtain
performance counters from the hypervisor. These counters do not have a
fixed format/possition and are instead documented in a "24x7 Catalog",
which is provided by the hypervisor (that interface is also documented
paritialy in the included hv-24x7-catalog.h and fully in at
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jmesmon/catalog-24x7/master/hv-24x7-catalog.h ).

The 24x7 data access is simply a copy operation into a 4 dimentional
array of 64bit counters (from hypervisor to kernel memory). There is no
interupt triggered on overflow, these are completely disjoint from the
typical power pmu.

This method of obtaining performance counters from the hypervisor is
intended to paritialy replace the gpci interface.
