[PATCH 6/8] perf tools: Separate exclude_hv fallback

[Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>]

The exclude_hv was added to address branch stack samples on Intel PMUs.
As some other PMUs might not support that, let's separate the bit from
exclude_kernel to make sure it can add the bit only if required.
