This patchset adds support for some perf events features,
targeted at ARM64, implemented in a generic fashion.
The two main features are as follows:
- support for arch/vendor/platform pmu events directory structure
- support for parsing architecture recommended pmu events
On the back of these, the Cavium ThunderX2 and HiSilicon hip08
JSONs are relocated/added.
TODO:
- Documentation needs to be updated for recommended
events format in the JSON
- tidy up patches a bit
