[PATCH 03/11] arm: perf: treat PMUs as CPU affine

From: Mark Rutland
Date: Fri Nov 07 2014 - 11:27:07 EST


In multi-cluster systems, the PMUs can be different across clusters, and
so our logical PMU may not be able to schedule events on all CPUs.

This patch adds a cpumask to encode which CPUs a PMU driver supports
controlling events for, and limits the driver to scheduling events on
those CPUs, and enabling and disabling the physical PMUs on those CPUs.
Currently the cpumask is set to match all CPUs.
