I think there is a simpler way to do that. We use T-Head PMU by default
for All T-Head CPUs (from mvendor id). Then, to test there is sscofpmf in
the ISA string being probed by the kernel. If yes, then use scofpmf.
Otherwise, use T-Head PMU.

I will check if this can also be switched in any vendor CSR like Svpbmt and
T-Head MAE we discussed before.
