In this last case, how does userspace know whether it got a 32-bit or a
64-bit counter?

Peter? Sounds like there's either a misunderstanding here or we have some
fundamental issue elsewhere.

CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS might be a better fit here.

This logic is duplicated in armv8pmu_event_is_chained(); can you split it
into a helper, please?

Why do we need to cross-call here? Seems like it would be a tonne simpler to
handle the trap. Is there a reason not to do that?

Given that the pmu_direct_access field is global per-mm, won't this go
wrong if multiple PMUs are opened by the same process but only a subset
are exposed to EL0? Perhaps pmu_direct_access should be treated as a mask
rather than a counter, so that we can 'and' it with the supported_cpus for
the PMU we're dealing with.

Why do you set this for all 32-bit events? The logic here feels like it
could with a bit of untangling.

The '32' here is the fake index for the cycle counter, right? I think that
was introduced in the previous patch, so let's add a #define for it.
