drivers/perf: arm_pmu: expose a cpumask in sysfs
In systems with heterogeneous CPUs, there are multiple logical CPU PMUs, each of which covers a subset of CPUs in the system. In some cases userspace needs to know which CPUs a given logical PMU covers, so we'd like to expose a cpumask under sysfs, similar to what is done for uncore PMUs. Unfortunately, prior to commit 00e727bb389359c8 ("perf stat: Balance opening and reading events"), perf stat only correctly handled a cpumask holding a single CPU, and only when profiling in system-wide mode. In other cases, the presence of a cpumask file could cause perf stat to behave erratically. Thus, exposing a cpumask file would break older perf binaries in cases where they would otherwise work. To avoid this issue while still providing userspace with the information it needs, this patch exposes a differently-named file (cpus) under sysfs. New tools can look for this and operate correctly, while older tools will not be adversely affected by its presence.
