Subject: Re: [PATCH 3/4] perf/x86/uncore: move SNB-EP/IvyTown specific code
 to seperate file

What's Ivytown? Is that IVB-EP or EX or both? I want to fix the subject
to not mix and match these terms.

A quick search seems to suggest Ivytown is IVB-EX, which leaves me
wondering what driver does IVB-EP use?

Patch 2 seems to be about NHM/WSM/SNB/IVB client parts
Patch 4 is about NHM/WSM EX parts

Which leaves SNB/IBV-EP/EX unhandled, does this patch cover all 4 of
those?

Which I guess brings me to your total lack of Changelogs, this would've
made prime changelog material.
