I think we want to remove --cputype widely in the code and replace
what it does with specifying a PMU name. Advertising a flag but then
warning seems strange and is a behavioral change from what is
currently done. For raw-dump we don't document it in the man page and
hide the flag, this is the pattern being followed here.

Ian
