[POWERPC] perfmon2: make pm_interval register read/write
The pm_interval register in the Cell PMU is read/write, but was implemented in the kernel as write-only. Previously, the written value was saved in a "shadow" copy so calls to cbe_read_pm() could return the value. Perfmon2 needs to be able to read the current values of pm_interval, so change cbe_read_pm() to read the actual register instead of the "shadow" copy. There is currently no code in the kernel that tries to read the pm_interval register with cbe_read_pm() (expecting to receive the "shadow" value), so this should not break any existing code.
