The rest of that sentance got dropped, so I put in

   The PMU on T-Head C9xx cores is quite similar to the SSCOFPMF extension
   but not completely identical, so this series adds a T-Head PMU errata
   that handlen the differences.

but LMK if you had a better version, it's still early so I don't mind 
swapping it around.

b4 also got kind of confused here so I had to merge suff manually.
