Is there actually any reason to proceed with this patch? When booting
Tegra using device tree (i.e. CONFIG_OF rather than the way the phrase
is used in the email subject), the ARM PMU is enabled on all boards. So,
I'd recommend switching to DT rather than continuing to patch up the
board files, which will hopefully be removed in the nearish future.

(BTW, best to cc linux-tegra at vger.kernel.org too)
