The current implementation of intel_pmc_core driver allows to reuse, but does not reflect the exact number and names of IPs for a newer platform which does not necessarily support all the IPs in the entries. The names and number of these IPs might differ from its previous platforms. The number of PCH IPs per platform is calculated based on PPFEAR_NUM_ENTRIES defined, where each entry represents a bucket (8 bits). The platform can support 'n' entries, but not necessarily all 'n * 8' IPs. Create platform dependent bitmap structures to specify the exact number, names of IPs while reusing the existing IPs. The changes in this patch are preparatory to accommodate future SoCs that might reuse the CNL/ICL PCH IPs, and to reflect the exact number of IPs with its names.

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.
