Thanks for squashing changes to arm_pmu_acpi.c from different patches in
v6 into one patch. Except for the a function definition in Patch 5 that can
be moved here I think you've got everything. The combined patch is a lot
easier to review.

Some comments below.

Please add matching braces on both sides of the else.

The parenthesis around the conditions can be dropped.

Why not just fail probe and return an error? What is the benefit of
having some of the PMUs available?

Please drop the prefix "last_". AFAICS, it doesn't provide any
information.

This entire "if" block is quite hard to review.

Quoting Documentation/CodingStyle, "if you need more than 3 levels of
indentation, you're screwed anyway, and should fix your program."

Moving the for_each_possible_cpu block out of this function should help
makes things simpler. It doesn't have any connection to registering the
platform device and you could then do 

if (!count)
   return count;

which should help reduce a level of indentation. But you can further use
the same approach with other conditions in the block as well.

Please don't silently continue if the irq is missing. It deserves a user
visible message. We don't want users complaining about kernel issues
when the firmware fails to provide the required information.

Check for the return value of acpi_register_gsi as it can return an
error.

What is the benefit of using the entire MIDR for cpu_id when the
grouping is done on the basis of a subset, i.e., part number.

Same comment about partial registration as above. It's better to error
out IMO.

Also if this stays, please use matching parenthesis on both sides of the else block.

Thanks,
