The reviews in the other replies don't look like break any current usage
on Arm64. I think the breakage issue is what you described in this
patch, right?

If we move the check of "arm_spe_0" to arch/arm/util/pmu.c, it seems we
have to move the perf_mem_events_arm[] into arch/arm/util/mem-events.c
as well. Is it OK?

I'm not familiar with ARM and have no idea how those events are
organized under arm64 and arm. Could you please send a fix for the
building failure on aarch64? I will fold it into the V3.

Thanks,
Kan
