so just curious, after all this time why are we suddenly making modularizable perf pmu drivers? Will other pmus be modularized, or is the uncore a special case? I'm not necessarily against the idea, it's just it's tricky enough as it is trying to help people with uncore pmu issues and now I will have to add "make sure the relevant kernel module is loaded" to the list of things that could be going wrong.
