Hi Will,

This seems like a nice approach to the problem. A couple of pedantic comments
inline!

struct pdev->id is a signed integer so we should check that it's not less than
0 so we don't overrun pmu_devices..

How about we stick a '#define pr_fmt(fmt) "PMU: " fmt' before the includes so
we get consistent naming if we add more pr_*() statements?

Just to be safe:

if (!pdev)
	return -ENODEV;
