[PATCH v2 0/2] perf: arm_pmuv3: Don't use PMCCNTR_EL0 on SMT cores

[Yicong Yang]

From: Yicong Yang <yangyicong at hisilicon.com>

This patchset fixed CPU_CYCLES counting on SMT system. CPU_CYCLES can use
PMCCNTR_EL0 which will count the hardware processor clock rather than the
PE clock (ARM DDI0487 L.b D13.1.3) on SMT cores which fails the users
expectation as CPU_CYCLES (0x0011) is defined to count on each PE cycles.
Fix this by avoid using PMCCNTR_EL0 on SMT cores when counting CPU_CYCLES.

Changes since v1:
- remove redundant comment and add tags on Patch 1/2
- detect the SMT implementation during PMU probe rather than runtime
