[ Upstream commit c82d28cbf1d4f9fe174041b4485c635cb970afa7 ] The PMU architecture makes a subtle difference between a 64bit counter and a counter that has a 64bit overflow. This is for example the case of the cycle counter, which can generate an overflow on a 32bit boundary if PMCR_EL0.LC==0 despite the accumulation being done on 64 bits. Use this distinction in the few cases where it matters in the code, as we will reuse this with PMUv3p5 long counters.

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.
