bus access read/write events are not supported in A73, and the definition
is duplicated, so delete it.

I re-checked the TRM for this core and Xu is right, the BUS_ACCESS 
events are not available on Cortex-A73. Plus those entries are 
duplicated, I think something went wrong when I rebased the patch.

So I think this new patch is doing the right thing.

Thanks for catching that.

Cheers,
