Nice to see this. Please post a link to the documentation describing these features.

+		F(ACE2) | F(ACE2_EN) | F(PHE) | F(PHE_EN) |
+		F(PMM) | F(PMM_EN);
+

Are all of these features save wrt save/restore? (do they all act on state in standard registers?) Do they need any control register bits to be active or MSRs to configure?

nent overflow check missing here.  Also, should probably skip if not a Via.
