    PMU device driver perf_pai_crypto supports Processor Activity
    Instrumentation (PAI), available with IBM z16:
    - maps a full page to lowcore address 0x1500.
    - uses CR0 bit 13 to turn PAI crypto counting on and off.
    - creates a sample with raw data on each context switch out when
      at context switch some mapped counters have a value of nonzero.
    This device driver only supports CPU wide context, no task context
    is allowed.
    
    Support for counting:
    - one or more counters can be specified using
      perf stat -e pai_crypto/xxx/
      where xxx stands for the counter event name. Multiple invocation
      of this command is possible. The counter names are listed in
      /sys/devices/pai_crypto/events directory.
    - one special counters can be specified using
      perf stat -e pai_crypto/CRYPTO_ALL/
      which returns the sum of all incremented crypto counters.
    - one event pai_crypto/CRYPTO_ALL/ is reserved for sampling.
      No multiple invocations are possible. The event collects data at
      context switch out and saves them in the ring buffer.
    
    Add qpaci assembly instruction to query supported memory mapped crypto
    counters. It returns the number of counters (no holes allowed in that
    range).
    
    The PAI crypto counter events are system wide and can not be executed
    in parallel. Therefore some restrictions documented in function
    paicrypt_busy apply.
    In particular event CRYPTO_ALL for sampling must run exclusive.
    Only counting events can run in parallel.
    
    PAI crypto counter events can not be created when a CPU hot plug
    add is processed. This means a CPU hot plug add does not get
    the necessary PAI event to record PAI cryptography counter increments
    on the newly added CPU. CPU hot plug remove removes the event and
    terminates the counting of PAI counters immediately.
