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)

Software events are supported either build-in or via the
use of generic tracepoints.
Most modern CPUs support performance events via performance
counter registers. These registers count the number of certain
types of hw events: such as instructions executed, cachemisses
suffered, or branches mis-predicted - without slowing down the
kernel or applications. These registers can also trigger interrupts
when a threshold number of events have passed - and can thus be
used to profile the code that runs on that CPU.
The Linux Performance Counter subsystem provides an abstraction of

The Linux Performance Event subsystem provides an abstraction of
these software and hardware cevent apabilities, available via a
system call and used by the "perf" utility in tools/perf/. It
provides per task and per CPU counters, and it provides event
capabilities on top of those.

This config has been obsoleted by the PERF_EVENTS
config option - please see that one for details.
It has no effect on the kernel whether you enable
