3 ARM cores often have a PMU for counting cpu and cache events like cache misses
4 and hits. The interface to the PMU is part of the ARM ARM. The ARM PMU
5 representation in the device tree should be done as under:-

7 Required properties:
8
9 - compatible : should be one of
10 "arm,cortex-a15-pmu"
11 "arm,cortex-a9-pmu"
12 "arm,cortex-a8-pmu"
13 "arm,cortex-a7-pmu"
14 "arm,cortex-a5-pmu"
15 "arm,arm11mpcore-pmu"
16 "arm,arm1176-pmu"
17 "arm,arm1136-pmu"
18 - interrupts : 1 combined interrupt or 1 per core.

22 pmu {
23 compatible = "arm,cortex-a9-pmu";
24 interrupts = <100 101>;
