[PATCH 2/4] perf arm_spe: Turn event name mappings into an array

James Clark
2026-04-01T14:26:24Z

This is so we can have a single function that prints events and can be
used with multiple mappings from different CPUs. Remove any bit that was
printed so that later we can print out the remaining unknown impdef
bits.

No functional changes intended.
