this bit needs more discussion:

'A download site' is way too vague and detached from the perf project.

We want these description files to be in the perf source code,
somewhere in tools/perf/live-config/arch/x86/ or so, and installed
during 'make install' - i.e. part of perf project and installed in
~/.debug or ~/.perf or so.
Those files could be refreshed via 'perf download' and could be
accessible via kernel.org as well, 'perf download' should pick up
these files from Linus's latest git repository (via the HTTP
namespace).
Thanks,
Ingo
