Hi Will,

Thanks for the response.

The patch was written as PoC to support multiple PMUs back then and was clearly
not intended for upstream. Will has already mentioned what this patch needs to
improve on.

I have mentioned few comments which IMO is necessary.

This can't be generic, it needs to be specific to each PMU implementations.
I have clearly mentioned it in the commit log. It's better to move this out
to each PMU specific implementations.

Once cpupmu_regs becomes PMU specific, you can remove it from the above 2
function pointers.

hcpu is misleading, the cpu_pm_notify doesn't pass the logical cpu index.
IIRC its NULL, rename it.

As Will suggested better to use used_mask to save/restore only active events.
