This should not be in uapi; pmu's can describe their config format in
sysfs.

PMU_FORMAT_ATTR(retprobe, "config:0");

static struct attribute *kprobe_attr[] = {
	&format_attr_retprobe,
	NULL,
};

static struct attribute_group kprobe_format_group = {
	.name = "format",
	.attrs = kprobe_attrs,
};

static const struct attribute_group *kprobe_attr_groups[] = {
	&kprobe_format_group,
	NULL,
};

struct pmu perf_kprobe {
	...

	.attr_groups = kprobe_attr_groups,
};

Other than that, this series looks good to me. Thanks!
