Adds a new driver to support the SMMUv3 PMU and add it into the
perf events framework.
Each SMMU node may have multiple PMUs associated with it, each of
which may support different events.
SMMUv3 PMCG devices are named as smmuv3_pmcg_<phys_addr_page> where
<phys_addr_page> is the physical page address of the SMMU PMCG
wrapped to 4K boundary. For example, the PMCG at 0xff88840000 is
named smmuv3_pmcg_ff88840
Filtering by stream id is done by specifying filtering parameters
with the event. options are:
filter_enable - 0 = no filtering, 1 = filtering enabled
filter_span - 0 = exact match, 1 = pattern match
filter_stream_id - pattern to filter against
Example: perf stat -e smmuv3_pmcg_ff88840/transaction,filter_enable=1,
filter_span=1,filter_stream_id=0x42/ -a netperf
Applies filter pattern 0x42 to transaction events, which means events
matching stream ids 0x42 & 0x43 are counted as only upper StreamID
bits are required to match the given filter. Further filtering
information is available in the SMMU documentation.
SMMU events are not attributable to a CPU, so task mode and sampling
are not supported.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
