All the current architecture specific defines for these

The new common linux/compat_time.h is also useful as it

IMC_MAX_PMU is used for static storage (per_nest_pmu_arr) which holds
nest pmu information. Current value for the macro is 32 based on
the initial number of nest pmu units supported by the nest microcode.
But going forward, microcode could support more nest units. Instead
of static storage, patch t
"pmu_count" in opal_imc_counters_probe() is intended to hold
the number of successful nest imc pmu registerations. But
current code also counts other imc units like core_imc and
thread_imc. Patch add a check to count only nest imc pmus.

The current scanning code is really hard to understand because it calls
the same function in a loop where pass value is changed without any
comments explaining it:
for (pass = 0; pass < 2; pass++)
for_each_pci_bridge(dev, bus)
max = pci_scan_bridge(bus, dev, max, pass);
Unfamiliar rea
