perf, powerpc: Handle events that raise an exception without overflowing
Events on POWER7 can roll back if a speculative event doesn't eventually complete. Unfortunately in some rare cases they will raise a performance monitor exception. We need to catch this to ensure we reset the PMC. In all cases the PMC will be 256 or less cycles from overflow.
