The activity monitors extension is an optional extension introduced
by the ARMv8.4 CPU architecture. This implements basic support for
version 1 of the activity monitors architecture, AMUv1.

This support includes:
- Extension detection on each CPU (boot, secondary, hotplugged)
- Register interface for AMU aarch64 registers
- (while here) create defines for ID_PFR0_EL1 fields when adding
the AMU field information.

+ The activity monitors extension is an optional extension introduced

+ of the activity monitors architecture, AMUv1.
+
+ To enable the use of this extension on CPUs that implement it, say Y.
+
+ Note that for architectural reasons, firmware _must_ implement AMU
+ support when running on CPUs that present the activity monitors
+ extension. The required support is present in:
+ * Version 1.5 and later of the ARM Trusted Firmware
+
+ For kernels that have this configuration enabled but boot with broken
+ firmware, you may need to say N here until the firmware is fixed.
+ Otherwise you may experience firmware panics or lockups when
+ accessing the counter registers. Even if you are not observing these
+ symptoms, the values returned by the register reads might not
+ correctly reflect reality. Most commonly, the value read will be 0,
+ indicating that the counter is not enabled.

Why is this STRICT while the aa64pfr0 field is NON_STRICT ? On the other
hand, do we need this entry ? Do we plan to support 32bit guests using
AMU counters ? If we do, we may need to cap this field for the guests.

Also, fyi, please note that there may be conflicts with another series from Anshuman which cleans up the tables and "naming" the shifts. [1].
[1] purposefully hides the AMU from ID_PFR0 due to the above reasoning.

minor nit: Or you may use a cpumask_t set of CPUs where AMU is
available. But if you plan to extend this for the future AMU version
tracking the mask may not be sufficient.

The rest looks fine to me.
