I have adjusted v12 using report_info(), with all PMU PMCR fields
printed in the same line. Implementer info was printed with Hex first,
then ASCII representation, to match MIDR table in ARM manual:

INFO: pmu: PMU implementer/ID code/counters: 0x41("A")/0x1/6

I left accessors in-place. We can always come back to refactor them later.

Done. I removed your name from Reviewed-by from Patch 1. You can ACK it
if ok.
