This is covered by later patches. Specifically patches like:
patch 7: perf pmu: Add is_core to pmu
patch 20: Split pmus list into core and uncore

Ultimately in pmus.h we have two scan routines, one for all PMUs and
one for core PMUs. For everything except hybrid (and the name varies a
bit on ARM) the core scan only scans "cpu", on hybrid it scans
"cpu_atom" and "cpu_core".  The determination of core vs uncore is
done without using the name, so can support >2 hybrid PMUs. At this
point in the patch series I'm trying to simplify everything so that I
can then build the pmus interface.

Thanks,
