These patches remove all weak functions and rework the struct pmu interface. The patches are boot tested on x86_64 and compile tested on: powerpc (!fsl, what config is that?), sparc and arm (sorry no SH compiler) On x86 perf stat and record with both software and hardware events still worked. I changed all (hardware) pmu implementations so there's a fair chance I messed something up, please have a look at it. If people agree with this, I'll continue with the per-pmu context stuff I talked about last time, which should get us the hardware write batching back.
