Upgrading the PMU code from ARMv8.1 to ARMv8.4 turns out to be
pretty easy. All that is required is support for PMMIR_EL1, which
is read-only, and for which returning 0 is a valid option.

Let's just do that and adjust what we return to the guest.

what about the debug version in aarch32 state. Is it on purpose that you
leave it as 8_1?
That's a good point. There is also the fact that we keep reporting
STALL_SLOT as a valid event even in PMCEID0_EL1 despite PMMIR_EL1.SLOTS
always reporting 0.
Hum OK. I did not notice that ;-)

Thanks

Eric
I'll fix that and resend something next week.

Thanks,
