From c464c76eec4be587604ca082e8cded7e6b89f3bf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Yan, Zheng" Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2014 16:56:41 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] perf: Allow building PMU drivers as modules This patch adds support for building PMU driver as module. It exports the functions perf_pmu_{register,unregister}() and adds reference tracking for the PMU driver module. When the PMU driver is built as a module, each active event of the PMU holds a reference to the driver module.
