I agree, think that should be:

	case CPU_PM_EXIT:
	case CPU_PM_ENTER_FAILED:
		cpu_pm_pmu_setup(armpmu, cmd);
		armpmu->start(armpmu);
		break;

... so that we re-start the events before we start the PMU.

That would be a fix for commit:

  da4e4f18afe0f372 ("drivers/perf: arm_pmu: implement CPU_PM notifier")
 
Thanks,
Mark.
