But from the previous discussion, I thought that we wanted an entry to 
cover all tools/perf/arch/arm64/ and other related folders. Or was it 
just put all special interest parts (like SPE support) under one entry 
and leave the other arm/arm64 parts to be caught by "PERFORMANCE EVENTS 
SUBSYSTEM" entry?

Cheers,
John
