Will Deacon 4295b898f5 ARM: 7448/1: perf: remove arm_perf_pmu_ids global enumeration
In order to provide PMU name strings compatible with the OProfile
user ABI, an enumeration of all PMUs is currently used by perf to
identify each PMU uniquely. Unfortunately, this does not scale well
in the presence of multiple PMUs and creates a single, global namespace
across all PMUs in the system.

This patch removes the enumeration and instead uses the name string
for the PMU to map onto the OProfile variant. perf_pmu_name is
implemented for CPU PMUs, which is all that OProfile cares about anyway.
