Add support for new BHRB filtering modes in power9. Filtering modes restrict the type of branch instructions that can enter into the BHRB. The filtering criteria are defined using the following terminology, Call, Return, Jump, Conditional Branch, Unconditional Branch, Indirect Branch and Direct Branch. PowerISA v3.0 defines 5 new BHRB filtering bits in MMCRA[27:31] for the software to prevent various combinations of each of the above types of Branch instructions from being entered into the BHRB. Patch updates the branch types based on "Progrmming Note" information from PowerISA v3.0 "BHRB Filtering" section.
