Also, if it helps, the disassembled code in question.
It looks like in validate_event() we do
struct arm_pmu *armpmu = to_arm_pmu(event->pmu);
...
return armpmu->get_event_idx(hw_events, event) >= 0;
armpmu is read into r3, and somehow the value at the offset of
armpmu->get_event_idx is either -1 or 0, so when it does a "blx"
branch to the address at this offset we get the ooops.

* c001bf98: e12fff33 blx r3
c001bf9c: e1e00000 mvn r0, r0
I'm having trouble tracing the code back past that, and I don't have time
to start adding printk's and recompiling right now.
