[RFC PATCH 0/6] SMMUv3 PMCG IMP DEF event support

2019-09-30 Thread John Garry
This patchset adds IMP DEF event support for the SMMUv3 PMCG. It is marked as an RFC as the method to identify the PMCG implementation may be a quite disliked. And, in general, the series is somewhat incomplete. So the background is that the PMCG supports IMP DEF events, yet we have no method to
