SBI v3.0 specification[1] added two new improvements to the PMU chaper.

1. Added an additional get_event_info function to query event availablity
in bulk instead of individual SBI calls for each event. This helps in
improving the boot time.

2. Raw event width allowed by the platform is widened to have 56 bits
with RAW event v2 as per new clarification in the priv ISA[2].

Apart from implementing these new features, this series adds a fix
in firmware event mapping and updates the kvm SBI implementation to
SBI v3.0.

The opensbi patches can be found at [3]. This series can be found at [4].
