This patch refactors the CCI PMU driver code a little bit to
make it easier share the code for enabling/disabling the CCI
PMU. This will be used by the hooks to work around the special cases
where writing to a counter is not always that easy(e.g, CCI-500)
No functional changes.

There's no need to dynamically initialise attribute pointers when we can
get the compiler to do it for us. We also don't need a dev_ext_attribute
for the cpumask, as the drvdata for a PMU device is a pointer to struct
pmu.

Each CCI model have different event/source codes and formats. This
patch exports this information via the sysfs, which includes the
aliases for the events. The aliases are listed by 'perf list', helping
the users to specify the name of the event instead of the binary
config values.
Each event alias must accompany the 'source' code except for the
following cases :
1) CCI-400 - cycles event, doesn't relate to an interface.
2) CCI-500 - Global events to the CCI. (Fixed source code = 0xf)
Each CCI model provides two sets of attributes(format and event),
which are dynamically populated before registering the PMU, to
allow for the appropriate information.

CCI-500 provides 8 event counters which can count any of the
supported events independently. The PMU event id is a 9-bit
value made of two parts.
bits [8:5] - Source port
0x0-0x6 Slave Ports
0x8-0xD Master Ports
0xf Global Events to CCI
0x7,0xe Reserved
bits [0:4] - Event code (specific to each type of port)
The generic CCI-500 controlling interface remains the same with CCI-400.
However there are some differences in the PMU event counters.
- No cycle counter
- Upto 8 counters(4 in CCI-400)
- Each counter area is 64K(4K in CCI400)
- The counter0 starts at offset 0x10000 from the base of CCI

Given that each CCI has different set of interfaces and
its associated events, it is good to abstract the validation of the
event codes to make it easier to add support for a new CCI model.
This patch also abstracts the mapping of a given event to a counter,
as there are some special counters for certain specific events.
We assume that the fixed hardware counters are always at the beginning,
so that we can use cci_model->fixed_hw_events as an upper bound to given
idx to check if we need to program the counter for an event.

Adds the PMU model specific counters to the PMU model
abstraction to make it easier to add a new PMU.
The patch cleans up the naming convention used all over
the code.
e.g, CCI_PMU_MAX_HW_EVENTS => maximum number of events that
can be counted at any time, which is in fact the maximum
number of counters available.
Change all such namings to use 'counters' instead of events.
This patch also abstracts the following:
1) Size of a PMU event counter area.
2) Maximum number of programmable counters supported by the PMU model
3) Number of counters which counts fixed events (e.g, cycle
counter on CCI-400).
Also changes some of the static allocation of the data
structures to dynamic, to accommodate the number of events
supported by a PMU.
Gets rid ofthe CCI_PMU_* defines for the model. All such
data should be accessed via the model abstraction.
Limits the number of counters to the maximum supported
by the 'model'.

Currently in validate_group(), there is a static initializer
for fake_pmu.used_mask which is based on CPU_BITS_NONE but
the used_mask array size is based on CCI_PMU_MAX_HW_EVENTS.
CCI_PMU_MAX_HW_EVENTS is not based on NR_CPUS, so CPU_BITS_NONE
is not correct and will cause a build failure if NR_CPUS
is set high enough to make CPU_BITS_NONE larger than used_mask.

We mask the event with the CCI_PMU_EVENT_MASK, before passing
the config to pmu_validate_hw_event(), which causes extra bits
to be ignored and qualifies an invalid event code as valid.
e.g,
$ perf stat -a -C 0 -e CCI_400/config=0x1ff,name=cycles/ sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
506951142 cycles

where, cycles has an event coding of 0xff. This patch also removes
the unnecessary 'event' mask in pmu_write_register, since the config_base
is set by the pmu code after the event is validated.

Avoid secure transactions while probing the CCI PMU. The
existing code makes use of the Peripheral ID2 (PID2) register
to determine the revision of the CCI400, which requires a
secure transaction. This puts a limitation on the usage of the
driver on systems running non-secure Linux(e.g, ARM64).
Updated the device-tree binding for cci pmu node to add the explicit
revision number for the compatible field.
The supported strings are :
arm,cci-400-pmu,r0
arm,cci-400-pmu,r1
arm,cci-400-pmu - DEPRECATED. See NOTE below
NOTE: If the revision is not mentioned, we need to probe the cci revision,
which could be fatal on a platform running non-secure. We need a reliable way
to know if we can poke the CCI registers at runtime on ARM32. We depend on
'mcpm_is_available()' when it is available. mcpm_is_available() returns true
only when there is a registered driver for mcpm. Otherwise, we assume that we
don't have secure access, and skips probing the revision number(ARM64 case).
The MCPM should figure out if it is safe to access the CCI. Unfortunately
there isn't a reliable way to indicate the same via dtb. This patch doesn't
address/change the current situation. It only deals with the CCI-PMU, leaving
the assumptions about the secure access as it has been, prior to this patch.

The perf core implicitly rejects events spanning multiple HW PMUs, as in
these cases the event->ctx will differ. However this validation is
performed after pmu::event_init() is called in perf_init_event(), and
thus pmu::event_init() may be called with a group leader from a
different HW PMU.
The CCI PMU driver does not take this fact into account, and assumes
that the any other hardware event belongs to the CCI. There are two
issues with it :
1) It is wrong and we should reject such groups.
2) Validation allocates an temporary idx for this non-cci event, which leads
to wrong calculation of the counter availability, and eventually lesser
number of events in the group.
This patch updates the CCI PMU driver to first test for and reject
events from other PMUs, which is the right thing to do.

The ARM CPU PMUs and the ARM CCI PMU are using the same framework
despite being substantially different in programming model, which makes
it difficult to handle either particularly well.
This patch migrates the ARM CCI PMU driver away from the arm_pmu
framework, matching the style of the CCN PMU driver and other 'uncore'
PMU drivers. This will enable refactoring of the arm_pmu framework to
better support CPU PMUs. Event context migration on hotplug is not yet
added due to a race on event->ctx in the core perf code.

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
"Included in this series are:
1. BE8 (modern big endian) changes for ARM from Ben Dooks
2. big.Little support from Nicolas Pitre and Dave Martin
3. support for LPAE systems with all system memory above 4GB
4. Perf updates from Will Deacon
5. Additional prefetching and other performance improvements from Will.
6. Neon-optimised AES implementation fro Ard.
7. A number of smaller fixes scattered around the place.
There is a rather horrid merge conflict in tools/perf - I was never
notified of the conflict because it originally occurred between Will's
tree and other stuff. Consequently I have a resolution which Will
forwarded me, which I'll forward on immediately after sending this
mail.
The other notable thing is I'm expecting some build breakage in the
crypto stuff on ARM only with Ard's AES patches. These were merged
into a stable git branch which others had already pulled, so there's
little I can do about this. The problem is caused because these
patches have a dependency on some code in the crypto git tree - I
tried requesting a branch I can pull to resolve these, and all I got
each time from the crypto people was "we'll revert our patches then"
which would only make things worse since I still don't have the
dependent patches. I've no idea what's going on there or how to
resolve that, and since I can't split these patches from the rest of
this pull request, I'm rather stuck with pushing this as-is or
reverting Ard's patches.
Since it should "come out in the wash" I've left them in - the only
build problems they seem to cause at the moment are with randconfigs,
and since it's a new feature anyway. However, if by -rc1 the
dependencies aren't in, I think it'd be best to revert Ard's patches"
I resolved the perf conflict roughly as per the patch sent by Russell,
but there may be some differences. Any errors are likely mine. Let's

On ARM multi-cluster systems coherency between cores running on
different clusters is managed by the cache-coherent interconnect (CCI).
It allows broadcasting of TLB invalidates and memory barriers and it
guarantees cache coherency at system level through snooping of slave
interfaces connected to it.
This patch enables the basic infrastructure required in Linux to handle and
programme the CCI component.
Non-local variables used by the CCI management functions called by power
down function calls after disabling the cache must be flushed out to main
memory in advance, otherwise incoherency of those values may occur if they
are sitting in the cache of some other CPU when power down functions
execute. Driver code ensures that relevant data structures are flushed
from inner and outer caches after the driver probe is completed.
CCI slave port resources are linked to set of CPUs through bus masters
phandle properties that link the interface resources to masters node in
the device tree.
Documentation describing the CCI DT bindings is provided with the patch.
