	How is that? One structure is per cpu, the other is per pmu type in the 
system, they are actually completely independent and intertwining them 
will only server to obfuscate the code.

Ok fair point.

? Its not silent, it fails to allocate the space complains about it, and 
therefor this pmu type is not created. In a system with a single CPU 
this basically cancels the whole operation. If there is more than one 
pmu, the remaining PMUs continue to have a chance of being created, 
although if the memory allocation fails (this is pretty early boot code) 
there is a high probability there is something seriously wrong with the 
system.

	Thats a point, but the lifetimes of the structures are different and 
outside of their shared use in this single function never really 
interact. I prefer not unnecessarily intertwine independent data 
structures simply to reduce parameter counts for a single function. 
Especially since it complicates cleanup because the validity of the 
resource structure will have to be tracked relative to its successful 
registration.
