hmmm... you have made significant changes in this version (compared to 
previous), so I would not have picked up this tag. That's just my opinion.

As for the patchset org, I'd move the JSON change here into patch #2, 
and make this patch purely about add "slots" literal support for arm64.

There is a lot in common with arm64's pmu_events_table__find() - can you 
factor it out? I also prefer how we check for homogeneous CPUs in 
pmu_events_table__find() (which you should do, also).

should this be NAN?

I think that this name is a bit too vague. Maybe 
perf_pmu__cpu_cycles_per_slot() could be better.
