The ID_AA64DFR0_EL1.PMUVer field doesn't follow the usual ID registers scheme. While value 0xf indicates a non-architected PMU is implemented, values 0x1 to 0xe indicate an increasingly featureful architected PMU, as if the field were unsigned. For more details, see ARM DDI 0487C.a, D10.1.4, "Alternative ID scheme used for the Performance Monitors Extension version". Currently, we treat the field as signed, and erroneously bail out for values 0x8 to 0xe. Let's correct that.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
