+* Samsung Exynos PPMU (Performance Profiling Monitoring Unit) device
+
+The Samsung Exynos SoC have PPMU (Performance Profiling Monitoring Unit) for
+each IPs. PPMU provides the primitive values to get performance data. These
+events provide useful information about the behavior of the SoC that you can
+use when analyzing system performance, and made visible and can be counted
+using login in each IP (DMC, CPU, RIGHTBUS, LEFTBUS, CAM interface, LCD, G3D,
+MFC). The Exynos PPMU driver use the devfreq-event class to provide event data
+to various devfreq device. The devfreq device would use the event data when
+derterming the current state of each IP.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Should be "samsung,exynos-ppmu".
+- reg: physical base address of each PPMU and length of memory mapped region.
+
+Optional properties:
+- clock-names : the name of clock used by the PPMU, "ppmu"
+- clocks : phandles for clock specified in "clock-names" property
+- #clock-cells: should be 1.
+
+Example1 : PPMU nodes in exynos3250.dtsi are listed below.

+			compatible = "samsung,exynos-ppmu";
