[PATCH v2 1/6] MIPS: perf: More robustly probe for the presence of per-tc counters

2018-04-12 Thread Matt Redfearn
Processors implementing the MIPS MT ASE may have performance counters implemented per core or per TC. Processors implemented by MIPS Technologies signify presence per TC through a bit in the implementation specific Config7 register. Currently the code which probes for their presence blindly reads
