    drivers/perf: arm_pmu: rework per-cpu allocation · 2681f018
    Mark Rutland authored
    For historical reasons, we allocate per-cpu data associated with a PMU
    rather late, in cpu_pmu_init, after we've parsed whatever hardware
    information we were provided with.
    
    In order to allow use to store some per-cpu data early in the probe
    path, we need to allocate (and initialise) the per-cpu data earlier.
    This patch reworks the way we allocate the pmu and associated per-cpu
    data in order to make that possible.
