Athira Rajeev f6a66ff98a tools/perf/arch/powerpc: Fix the CPU ID const char* value by adding 0x prefix
Simple expression parser test fails in powerpc as below:

    4: Simple expression parser
    test child forked, pid 170385
    Using CPUID 004e2102
    division by zero
    syntax error
    syntax error
    FAILED tests/expr.c:65 parse test failed
    test child finished with -1
    Simple expression parser: FAILED!

This is observed after commit:
'commit 9d5da30e4a ("perf jevents: Add a new expression builtin strcmp_cpuid_str()")'

With this commit, a new expression builtin strcmp_cpuid_str
got added. This function takes an 'ID' type value, which is
a string. So expression parse for strcmp_cpuid_str expects
const char * as cpuid value type. In case of powerpc, CPU IDs
are numbers. Hence it doesn't get interpreted correctly by
bison parser. Example in case of power9, cpuid string returns
as: 004e2102

cpuid of string type is expected in two cases:
1. char *get_cpuid_str(struct perf_pmu *pmu __maybe_unused);

   Testcase "tests/expr.c" uses "perf_pmu__getcpuid" which calls
   get_cpuid_str to get the cpuid string.

2. cpuid field in  :struct pmu_events_map

   struct pmu_events_map {
           const char *arch;
	   const char *cpuid;

   Here cpuid field is used in "perf_pmu__find_events_table"
   function as "strcmp_cpuid_str(map->cpuid, cpuid)". The
   value for cpuid field is picked from mapfile.csv.

Fix the mapfile.csv and get_cpuid_str function to prefix
cpuid with 0x so that it gets correctly interpreted by
the bison parser

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
