There are a couple of FIXME's in the perf code which state that cpu_data[event->cpu].vpe_id reports 0 for both CPUs. This is no longer the case, since the vpe_id is used extensively by SMP CPS.
VPE local counting gets around this by using smp_processor_id() instead. As it happens this does work correctly to count events on the right VPE, but relies on 2 assumptions: a) Always having 2 VPEs / core. b) The hardware only paying attention to the least significant bit of the PERFCTL.VPEID field. If either of these assumptions change then the incorrect VPEs events will be counted. Fix this by replacing smp_processor_id() with cpu_vpe_id(¤t_cpu_data), in the vpe_id() macro, and pass vpe_id() to M_PERFCTL_VPEID() when setting up PERFCTL.VPEID. The FIXME's can also be removed since they no longer apply.
