The intel_ctrl is the counter mask of a PMU. The PMU counter information may be different among hybrid PMUs, each hybrid PMU should use its own intel_ctrl to check and access the counters. When handling a certain hybrid PMU, apply the intel_ctrl from the corresponding hybrid PMU. When checking the HW existence, apply the PMU and number of counters from the corresponding hybrid PMU as well. Perf will check the HW existence for each Hybrid PMU before registration. Expose the check_hw_exists() for a later patch.

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.
