+ * On POWER8E there is a hardware defect which affects the PMU context

+ *
+ * When a counter overflows PMXE is cleared and FC/PMAO is set in MMCR0
+ * by the hardware. Sometime later the actual PMU exception is
+ * delivered.
+ *
+ * If we context switch, or simply disable/enable, the PMU prior to the
+ * exception arriving, the exception will be lost when we clear PMAO.
+ *
+ * When we reenable the PMU, we will write the saved MMCR0 with PMAO
+ * set, and this _should_ generate an exception. However because of the
+ * defect no exception is generated when we write PMAO, and we get
+ * stuck with no counters counting but no exception delivered.
+ *
+ * The workaround is to detect this case and tweak the hardware to
+ * create another pending PMU exception.
+ *
+ * We do that by setting up PMC6 (cycles) for an imminent overflow and
+ * enabling the PMU. That causes a new exception to be generated in the
+ * chip, but we don't take it yet because we have interrupts hard
+ * disabled. We then write back the PMU state as we want it to be seen
+ * by the exception handler. When we reenable interrupts the exception
+ * handler will be called and see the correct state.
+ *
+ * The logic is the same for EBB, except that the exception is gated by
+ * us having interrupts hard disabled as well as the fact that we are
+ * not in userspace. The exception is finally delivered when we return
+ * to userspace.
