On powerpc the perf event interrupt is not masked when interrupts are disabled, allowing it to function as an NMI. This causes problems if perf is using vmalloc. If we take a page fault on the vmalloc region the fault handler will fail the page fault because it detects we are coming in from an NMI (see do_hash_page()). We don't actually need or want vmalloc backed perf so just disable it on powerpc.
