Anton Blanchard c8cd093a6e powerpc: tracing: Add hypervisor call tracepoints
Add hcall_entry and hcall_exit tracepoints.  This replaces the inline
assembly HCALL_STATS code and converts it to use the new tracepoints.

To keep the disabled case as quick as possible, we embed a status word
in the TOC so we can get at it with a single load.  By doing so we
keep the overhead at a minimum.  Time taken for a null hcall:

No tracepoint code:	135.79 cycles
Disabled tracepoints:	137.95 cycles

For reference, before this patch enabling HCALL_STATS resulted in a null
hcall of 201.44 cycles!
