    Subject[PATCH RESEND v2 0/3] arm64: cppc: add FFH support using AMUs
    Date
    This series adds support for CPPC's delivered and reference performance
    counters through the FFH methods by using the AMU equivalent core and
    constant cycle counters.

    This support is added in patch 3/3, while the first 2 patches generalise
    the existing AMU counter read and validation functionality to be reused
    for this usecase.

    The specification that drove this implementation can be found at [1],
    chapter 3.2.

    RESEND v2: rebase and retest on v5.10-rc1

    v1 -> v2:
    - v1 can be found at [2]
    - The previous patch 1/4 was removed and a get_cpu_with_amu_feat()
    function was introduced instead, in 3/3, as suggested by Catalin.
    Given that most checks for the presence of AMUs is done at CPU
    level, followed by other validation, this implementation works
    better than the one initially introduced in v1/->patch 1/4.
    - Fixed warning reported by 0-day kernel test robot.
    - All build tests and FVP tests at [2] were re-run for this version.
    - This version is based on linux-next/20201001.
