These series implement Perf NMI funxtionality and depends on Pseudo NMI [1] which has been upstreamed.
In arm64 with GICv3, Pseudo NMI was implemented for NMI-like interruts. That can be extended to Perf NMI which is the prerequisite for hard-lockup detector which had already a standard interface inside Linux.
Thus the first step we need to implement perf NMI interface and make sure it works fine.
Perf NMI has been test by dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/null like the link [2] did.
