[PATCH v2 2/3] perf vendor events: Add new armv8 pmu events
From: Andrew Kilroy
Date: Wed Oct 06 2021 - 04:11:38 EST
Add new armv8 common events for use by Arm Neoverse V1 cores in a later
commit. These are defined in the ArmV8 architecture reference manual
available from
https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0487/gb/?lang=en
