Tested the patches that are part of sifive's release tree for p550.
Both perf stat/record seems to work fine
for a bunch of events.

Based on that
Tested-by: Atish Patra <atishp at rivosinc.com>

@Samuel Holland : perf report that the following two events are not
supported on the p550 board.

cycle and instruction count:
  core_clock_cycles
       [Counts core clock cycles]
  instructions_retired
       [Counts instructions retired]

I assumed that these are raw events cycle/instruction retired events
that can support
perf sampling as well. Maybe I am missing something ? DT binding ?
