ARM virtual counter supports event stream, it can only trigger an event
when the trigger bit (the value of CNTKCTL_EL1.EVNTI) of CNTVCT_EL0 changes, so the actual period of event stream is 2^(cntkctl_evnti + 1). For example, when the trigger bit is 0, then virtual counter trigger an event for every
two cycles.

I have never given you this tag, you are making it up. Please read
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst to understand what
tag you can put by yourself.

At best, put "Suggested-by" tag, as this is different from what
I posted anyway.

Thanks,

        M.
