From a0feb6db0fe03326d7d2c7a4615ce3289615c023 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lorenzo Pieralisi Date: Tue, 6 Mar 2012 17:37:45 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: 7358/1: perf: add PMU hotplug notifier When a CPU is taken out of reset, either cold booted or hotplugged in, some of its PMU registers can contain UNKNOWN values. This patch adds a hotplug notifier to ARM core perf code so that upon CPU restart the PMU unit is reset and becomes ready to use again.
