This is confusing.  It's called arm_pmu_TYPE, and it's referred to as a
type in printks.  Yet you're renaming the variable to device.  That just
adds to the problem.

What is it, a type number or a device number?

If it's a device number, then the printks also need fixing, and maybe the
enumerated type name too.
