Merge tag 'arm64-perf' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux

Pull arm[64] perf updates from Will Deacon:
 "In the past, I have funnelled perf updates through the respective
  architecture trees, but now that the arm/arm64 perf driver has been
  largely consolidated under drivers/perf/, it makes more sense to send
  a separate pull, particularly as I'm listed as maintainer for all the
  files involved.  I offered the branch to arm-soc, but Arnd suggested
  that I just send it to you directly.

  So, here is the arm/arm64 perf queue for 4.5.  The main features are
  described below, but the most useful change is from Drew, which
  advertises our architected event mapping in sysfs so that the perf
  tool is a lot more user friendly and no longer requires the use of
  magic hex constants for profiling common events.

   - Support for the CPU PMU in Cortex-A72

   - Add sysfs entries to describe the architected events and their
     mappings for PMUv{1-3}"
