perf: add the necessary core perf APIs when accessing events counters in eBPF programs
This patch add three core perf APIs:
- perf_event_attrs(): export the struct perf_event_attr from struct
perf_event;
- perf_event_get(): get the struct perf_event from the given fd;
- perf_event_read_local(): read the events counters active on the
current CPU;
These APIs are needed when accessing events counters in eBPF programs.
The API perf_event_read_local() comes from Peter and I add the
corresponding SOB.
