Add perf_event_mips_regs/perf_reg_value/perf_reg_validate to support
features HAVE_PERF_REGS/HAVE_PERF_USER_STACK_DUMP in kernel.
[ayan@wavecomp.com: Repick this patch for unwinding userstack backtrace
by perf and libunwind on MIPS based CPU.]
[ralf@linux-mips.org: Add perf_get_regs_user() which is required after
'commit 88a7c26af8 ("perf: Move task_pt_regs sampling into arch code")'.]
[yangtiezhu@loongson.cn: Fix build error about perf_get_regs_user() after
commit 76a4efa809 ("perf/arch: Remove perf_sample_data::regs_user_copy"),
