Hi Raghavendra,
Those functions might be useful for other pmu tests. Recently I just
wrote a pmu_event_filter_test[1] and use the enable_counter().
There may have more pmu tests which can use the helper functions, so I
think we can keep it now. And in my series[1], I have moved them into
the lib/ as the helper function.

Thanks,
Shaoqin

vpmu_counter_access's disable_counter() carries a bug that disables
all the counters that are enabled, instead of just the requested one.
Fortunately, it's not an issue as there are no callers of it. Hence,
instead of fixing it, remove the definition entirely.
Remove enable_counter() as it's unused as well.
