Well there's still the 'perf' vs' events' thing, but also what other
files did you want to put there?

For now I think I prefer a filename without extra directories; we can
always move files about if there's more use later.

Also, since its being used by both events/amd/iommu.c and
drivers/iommu/amd_iommu.c you can also chose a name in the latter
namespace.
