 Most of the SoC PMU has a specific list of agent ID used for monitoring
 performance of a specific datapath. For example, agents of a L3 cache can be
 a specific CPU or an I/O bridge. Each PMU has a set of 2 registers capable of
-masking the agents from which the request come from. If the bit with
-the bit number corresponding to the agent is set, the event is counted only if
-it is caused by a request from that agent. Each agent ID bit is inversely mapped
-to a corresponding bit in "config1" field. By default, the event will be
-counted for all agent requests (config1 = 0x0). For all the supported agents of
-each PMU, please refer to APM X-Gene User Manual.

+default of config1 is 0.

 Each perf driver also provides a "cpumask" sysfs attribute, which contains a
 single CPU ID of the processor which will be used to handle all the PMU events.
