Changes since v1:
- Change 'depends on SOC_STARFIVE' to 'depends on ARCH_STARFIVE'
   in Kconfig

----

This patch series adds support for StarFive's Starlink Performance
Monitor Unit(PMU).
StarFive's StarLink PMU integrates one or more CPU cores with
a shared L3 memory system. The PMU supports overflow interrupt,
up to 16 programmable 64bit event counters, and an independent
64bit cycle counter.
StarLink PMU is accessed via MMIO.

Example Perf stat output:
[root at user]# perf stat -a -e /starfive_starlink_pmu/cycles/ \
        -e /starfive_starlink_pmu/read_miss/ \
        -e /starfive_starlink_pmu/read_hit/ \
        -e /starfive_starlink_pmu/release_request/  \
        -e /starfive_starlink_pmu/write_hit/ \
        -e /starfive_starlink_pmu/write_miss/ \
        -e /starfive_starlink_pmu/write_request/ \
        -e /starfive_starlink_pmu/writeback/ \
        -e /starfive_starlink_pmu/read_request/ \
