  ---Problem Description---
  BZ 150738 added  Power9 PMU event lists to the Linux kernel tree.
  We need to update the event lists to include several more events
  as well as clean up the event descriptions of some events.

  The patches for these updates were posted to LKML 
       https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/8/2/699
  with:
      Subject: Re: [GIT PULL] Please pull JSON files for Power9 PMU events

  and were merged into Arnaldo's "perf-core" tree as git commits:

  
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux.git/commit/?h=perf/core&id=864c572433dedfb5c36db79c4ceb6dfb80b3344b
  ("perf vendor events powerpc: remove suffix in mapfile")
