ACPI TRBE does not have a HID for identification which could create and add a platform device into the platform bus. Also without a platform device, it cannot be probed and bound to a platform driver. This creates a dummy platform device for TRBE after ascertaining that ACPI provides required interrupts uniformly across all cpus on the system. This device gets created inside drivers/perf/arm_pmu_acpi.c to accommodate TRBE being built as a module.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
