Changes since v4:
* "Support implementation specific filters" patch:
- Added comment about filter and impdef registers and reference
to the Coresight PMU specification to the commit message

* "Add support for Ampere SoC PMU" patch:
- Fixed the documentation and added more comments
- Changed the incrementing PMU index number to idr_alloc()
(Needs a impdef release hook patch to release unused index)
- Fixed style in init_ops() to more reasonable
- Moved bank parameter to config1

This looks pretty good to me, but I think we should merge the series
reworking the backend registration first:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230705104745.52255-1-bwicaksono@xxxxxxxxxx/

and then this should slot in quite nicely. I've left a minor comment over
there and I'd like Suzuki's review, but then we're good to go.

Sounds good to me. I'll try to find some time to do the needed changes to
my patches and rebase them on top of Besar's patchset.

Cheers, Ilkka
