Power processor provides the ability to monitor a large number of Performance
Monitoring events. However the linux kernel/perf tool requires that a vast
majority
of these events be specified by their raw codes:
perf stat -e r100f2 sleep 1
We would instead like to be able to specify the events by its name:
perf stat -e pm_1plus_ppc_cmpl sleep 1
where the event name name 'pm_1plus_ppc_cmpl' is defined in
the POWER PMU specs

No, no comments yet from maintainer, so patches still stuck. Yes we could
re-target to 16.10 for now.
