Hi Maddy,
Firstly you should use "PMC" not pmc, it's an acronym. You should also
spell out what it means the first time you use it, eg:
Currently the PMC (Performance Monitor Counter) macros are used ..
Secondly you need to say _why_ it is a bad idea to use the PMC macros
for non-PMC SPRs.

This is basically a complete copy of the SYSFS_PMCSETUP() macro, except
for the one line removal of the call to ppc_enable_pmcs().
You should be able to do better, by defining a macro that does all the
boiler plate and takes an "extra" argument, which for PMCs is
"ppc_enable_pmcs()" and for regular SPRs is empty.
