The series is getting smaller, but you still included this patch 
I pointed out in my last review, which unnecessary increases the 
size of the initial hw support series by adding Haswell-specific 
transaction profiling features.

As requested before, please keep those in a completely separate 
series so that minimal support can be merged upstream. This is 
how we always did new hardware support in the past, in iterative 
steps, and we are not going to make an exception for you.

I find it pretty counterproductive that you have ignored my 
previous series structure request. Every unnecessary delay you 
cause here delays upstream profiling support for Haswell CPUs.

Thanks,
