I think it'd be better to say that arch/arm's implementation of these is
equivalent to the generic versions in include/linux/perf_event.h, and so
arch/arm doesn't need to provide its own versions. It doesn't matter if
arch/arm uses them itself since they're being provided for the core perf
code.
With words to that effect:
