+#define DRVNAME "arm_spe_pmu"Based on Intel naming "intel_pt" and "intel_bts', I had expected "arm-spe" as the universal basename for SPE. I don't really care about whether '_pmu' is included, but it's yet another naming inconsistency we have with coresight's "cs_etm" (the other being prefixed with "arm_"). Also, nit, since I don't know why perf userspace tools can't handle dashes in PMU names (commit 3d1ff755e367 "arm: perf: clean up PMU names" doesn't say), can we at least start to use dashes in our filenames? arm-spe-pmu.c is easier to type than arm_spe_pmu.c.
