Merge patch series "RISC-V: hwprobe: Misaligned scalar perf fix and rename"
Evan Green <evan@rivosinc.com> says: The CPUPERF0 hwprobe key was documented and identified in code as a bitmask value, but its contents were an enum. This produced incorrect behavior in conjunction with the WHICH_CPUS hwprobe flag. The first patch in this series fixes the bitmask/enum problem by creating a new hwprobe key that returns the same data, but is properly described as a value instead of a bitmask. The second patch renames the value definitions in preparation for adding vector misaligned access info. As of this version, the old defines are kept in place to maintain source compatibility with older userspace programs. * b4-shazam-merge: RISC-V: hwprobe: Add SCALAR to misaligned perf defines RISC-V: hwprobe: Add MISALIGNED_PERF key Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240809214444.3257596-1-evan@rivosinc.comSigned-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmer@rivosinc.com>
