powerpc/perf_events: Fix priority of MSR HV vs PR bits
The architecture defines that if MSR PR is set we are in problem state irrespective of the HV bit. This fixes perf events to reflect this. Also, on bare metal systems, samples taken in Linux will now be reported as kernel rather than hypervisor.
