Current MIPS Perf-events uses older interfaces to the generic layer. So it will not work. This patch set fixes this issue (reported by Wu Zhangjin) by adding MIPS counterparts for a list of previous commits that went to mainline earlier. Changes: v3 - v2: o Keep all mentioned commits in the form of number + title + original summary + (MIPS specific info when needed). v2 - v1: o Corrected the return value of the event check in validate_event().
