The architecture states that when MMCR0[PMCC] = 0b11, PMC5 and PMC6
are not part of the Performance Monitor, meaning that they are not
controlled by bits in MMCRs, and counter negative conditions in PMCs 5
and 6 don't generate Performance Monitor alerts, exceptions or
interrupts. It doesn't say that PMC5 and PMC6 are frozen in this
case, so presumably they should continue to count run instructions and
run cycles.
This implements that behaviour.

This is the start of an implementation of a PMU according to PowerISA
v3.0B. Things not implemented yet include most architected events,
the BHRB, event-based branches, thresholding, MMCR0[TBCC] field, etc.
