perf: Tidy up after the big rename
- provide compatibility Kconfig entry for existing PERF_COUNTERS .config's - provide courtesy copy of old perf_counter.h, for user-space projects - small indentation fixups - fix up MAINTAINERS - fix small x86 printout fallout - fix up small PowerPC comment fallout (use 'counter' as in register) Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
