Subject: [PATCH 0/9] arm64: Add support for Armv9.4 PMU fixed instruction
 counter

This series adds support for the optional fixed instruction counter 
added in Armv9.4 PMU. Most of the series is a refactoring to remove the 
index to counter number conversion which dates back to the Armv7 PMU 
driver. Removing it is necessary in order to support more than 32 
counters without a bunch of conditional code further complicating the 
conversion.

Patches 1-2 move the 32-bit Arm PMU drivers into drivers/perf/ and drop 
non-DT probe support. These can be taken first if there's no comments on 
them.

Patch 3 changes struct arm_pmu.num_events to a bitmap of events, and 
updates all the users. This removes the index to counter conversion 
on the PMUv3 and Armv7 drivers.

Patch 4 updates various register accessors to use 64-bit values matching 
the register size.

Patches 5-6 update KVM PMU register accesses to use shared accessors 
from asm/arm_pmuv3.h.

Patches 7-8 rework KVM and perf PMU defines for counter indexes and 
number of counters.

Patch 9 finally adds support for the fixed instruction counter.

I tested this on FVP with VHE host and a guest. I tested the Armv7 PMU 
changes with QEMU.
