OK, here you go. I agree that duplicating the event -> ID mapping is
undesirable, but some rather ugly preprocessor stuff is required to
convert the enum into it's hex value (is there a better way to do
this?). I think it may be less ugly if we build the string at runtime
instead of at compile time (ie, going back to using PMU_EVENT_ATTR
instead of PMU_EVENT_ATTR_STRING).

Add additional information about the ARM architected hardware events
to make counters self describing. This makes the hardware PMUs easier
to use as perf list contains possible events instead of users having
to refer to documentation like the ARM TRMs.

Yeah, I see what you mean. However, I don't think we actually need these
as an enum, do we? So maybe just replace the whole lot with a bunch of
#defines (mechanical change since they're already namespaced, separate
patch before this one) and then have this patch use those #defines for
the sysfs stuff.

Sorry for the to-and-fro-ing on this.

I've done as suggested and converted all the events to #defines and
split it up into two patches.
