Agreed. I think the only other option is:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240525152927.665498-1-irogers@google.com/
and then when specifying the CPU cycles event on these Ampere systems
you have to do:

$ perf record -e 'armv8_pmuv3_0/cycles/P' ...

but Linus isn't happy with having to specify a PMU like that. As that
is an ARM/Ampere only problem I'm not sure it is so bad.

Thanks,
Ian
