I added an assert to check n is less or equal than 0x3F

Yes this test is a placeholder for looking at the PMU characteristics
and we may add some other queries there.

yes. Added TODO. I do not know how to check whether the conditions are
satisfied? Do you have any idea?

Thank you for the review!
