[PATCH 0/2] perf: ARM CoreSight PMU support

Add driver support for ARM CoreSight PMU device and event attributes for NVIDIA
implementation. The code is based on ARM Coresight PMU architecture and ACPI ARM
Performance Monitoring Unit table (APMT) specification below:
 * ARM Coresight PMU:
        https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ihi0091/latest
 * APMT: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/den0117/latest

Notes:
 * There is a concern on the naming of the PMU device.
   Currently the driver is probing "arm-coresight-pmu" device, however the APMT
   spec supports different kinds of CoreSight PMU based implementation. So it is
   open for discussion if the name can stay or a "generic" name is required.
   Please see the following thread:
