perf: Adding sysfs group format attribute for pmu device
Adding sysfs group 'format' attribute for pmu device that
contains a syntax description on how to construct raw events.
The event configuration is described in following
struct pefr_event_attr attributes:
config
config1
config2
Each sysfs attribute within the format attribute group,
describes mapping of name and bitfield definition within
one of above attributes.
eg:
"/sys/...<dev>/format/event" contains "config:0-7"
"/sys/...<dev>/format/umask" contains "config:8-15"
"/sys/...<dev>/format/usr" contains "config:16"
the attribute value syntax is:
line: config ':' bits
config: 'config' | 'config1' | 'config2"
bits: bits ',' bit_term | bit_term
bit_term: VALUE '-' VALUE | VALUE
