The Performance Monitors extension is an optional feature of the
AArch64 architecture, therefore, in order to access Performance
Monitors registers safely, the kernel should detect the architected
PMU unit presence through the ID_AA64DFR0_EL1 register PMUVer field
before accessing them.
This patch implements a guard by reading the ID_AA64DFR0_EL1 register
PMUVer field to detect the architected PMU presence and prevent accessing
PMU system registers if the Performance Monitors extension is not
implemented in the core.
Fixes: 60792ad349f3 ("arm64: kernel: enforce pmuserenr_el0 initialization and
restore")

v1 -> v2
- Updated the PMUVer field conditional check to take into account
future PMU versions
v1:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2016-January/398090.html
Will,
rebased on top of mainline, we should be tagging stable before merging.
It applies to current mainline (commit 67990608c8b9).
Tested on Juno and QEMU.
Thanks,
Lorenzo
