Mmh, the output of this is a bit confusing. How about to join some
information? I changed it to give me:
INFO: pmu: PMU implementer/ID code:     "A"(0x41)/0x0
INFO: pmu: Event counters:      0
PASS: pmu: Control register

... by using the newly introduced report_info() to make it look nicer.

I guess you should use the arch specific header files we have in place
for that (lib/arm{.64}/asm/processor.h). Also there are sysreg read
wrappers (at least for arm64) in there already, can't we base this
function on them: DEFINE_GET_SYSREG32(pmcr, el0)?
(Requires a small change to get rid of the forced "_el1" suffix)

We should wait for the GIC series to be merged, as this contains some
changes in this area.

If this register reads as zero, the output is mangled (since it cuts off
the string before the newline):
=====
PMU implementer:     Identification code: 0x0
=====

I guess you need something like:
(pmcr >> PMU_PMCR_IMP_SHIFT) & PMU_PMCR_IMP_MASK ?: ' '

As mentioned above this should use report_info() now, also it would be
nice to merge this with the message above into one line of output.
