Userspace usually needs some information about the performance counters
available. Although we could replicate this information in the kernel
and user-space, let's use the kernel as the "single source of truth" to
avoid issues in the future (e.g. list of performance counters is updated
in user-space, but not in the kernel, generating invalid requests).

Therefore, create a new IOCTL to expose the performance counters
information, that is name, category, and description.
