Again that's in the header file, which looks okay to me.

Now looking at the file, core.c

   get_possible_counter_mask()
   reserve_pmc_hardware()
   release_pmc_hardware()
   set_ext_hw_attr()
   precise_br_compat()
   add_nr_metric_event()
   collect_event()
   ...

Then all of them violate that naming convention?

There is also another pattern assigning x86_pmu_xxx() to function 
pointers in struct pmu. Certainly this xsaving function itself isn't the 
case.
