Subject: [PATCH v5 0/6] Add metrics for neoverse-n2

Changes since v4:
- Add MPKI/PKI “ScaleUnit”;
- Add acked-by from Ian Rogers;
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1671799045-1108027-1-git-send-email-renyu.zj@linux.alibaba.com/

Changes since v3:
- Add ipc_rate metric;
- Drop the PublicDescription;
- Describe PEutilization metrics in more detail;
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1669310088-13482-1-git-send-email-renyu.zj@linux.alibaba.com/

Changes since v2:
- Correct the furmula of Branch metrics;
- Add more PE utilization metrics;
- Add more TLB metrics;
- Add “ScaleUnit” for some metrics;
- Add a newline at the end of the file;
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1668411720-3581-1-git-send-email-renyu.zj@linux.alibaba.com/

Changes since v1:
- Corrected formula for topdown L1 due to wrong counts for stall_slot and
  stall_slot_frontend; 
- Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1667214694-89839-1-git-send-email-renyu.zj@linux.alibaba.com/


This series add six metricgroups for neoverse-n2, among which, the formula of
topdown L1 is from ARM sbsa7.0 platform design document [0], D37-38.

However, due to the wrong count of stall_slot and stall_slot_frontend on
neoverse-n2, the real stall_slot and real stall_slot_frontend need to
subtract cpu_cycles,  so correct the expression of topdown metrics.
Reference from ARM neoverse-n2 errata notice [1], D117.

Since neoverse-n2 does not yet support topdown L2, metricgroups such as Cache,
TLB, Branch, InstructionsMix, and PEutilization are added to help further
analysis of performance bottlenecks. Reference from ARM PMU guide [2][3].

  branch_pki
       [The rate of branches retired per kilo instructions]
Cache:
  l1d_cache_miss_rate
       [The rate of L1 D-Cache misses to the overall L1 D-Cache]
  l1d_cache_mpki
       [The rate of L1 D-Cache misses per kilo instructions]
