powerpc/perf: Fix IMC allocation routine
When setting nr_cpus=1, we observed a crash in IMC code during boot due to a missing allocation: basically, IMC code is taking the number of threads into account in imc_mem_init() and if we manually set nr_cpus for a value that is not multiple of the number of threads per core, an integer division in that function will discard the decimal portion, leading IMC to not allocate one mem_info struct. This causes a NULL pointer dereference later, on is_core_imc_mem_inited(). This patch just rounds that division up, fixing the bug. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.
