* UPSTREAM: drivers/perf: arm_pmu: implement CPU_PM notifierLorenzo Pieralisi2017-06-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (cherry picked from commit da4e4f18afe0f3729d68f3785c5802f786d36e34) When a CPU is suspended (either through suspend-to-RAM or CPUidle), its PMU registers content can be lost, which means that counters registers values that were initialized on power down entry have to be reprogrammed on power-up to make sure the counters set-up is preserved (ie on power-up registers take the reset values on Cold or Warm reset, which can be architecturally UNKNOWN). To guarantee seamless profiling conditions across a core power down this patch adds a CPU PM notifier to ARM pmus, that upon CPU PM entry/exit from low-power states saves/restores the pmu registers set-up (by using the ARM perf API), so that the power-down/up cycle does not affect the perf behaviour (apart from a black-out period between power-up/down CPU PM notifications that is unavoidable).

* arm: perf: factor arm_pmu core out to driversMark Rutland2015-07-31
To enable sharing of the arm_pmu code with arm64, this patch factors it out to drivers/perf/. A new drivers/perf directory is added for performance monitor drivers to live under. MAINTAINERS is updated accordingly. Files added previously without a corresponsing MAINTAINERS update (perf_regs.c, perf_callchain.c, and perf_event.h) are also added.
