This patch series adds support for StarFive's Starlink Performance Monitor Unit(PMU). StarFive's StarLink PMU integrates one or more CPU cores with a shared L3 memory system. The PMU supports overflow interrupt, up to 16 programmable 64bit event counters, and an independent 64bit cycle counter. StarLink PMU is accessed via MMIO.
