fdb59f927e - Separate PMC class dependent code from other kinds of machine
dependencies.  A 'struct pmc_classdep' structure describes operations
  on PMCs; 'struct pmc_mdep' contains one or more 'struct pmc_classdep'
  structures depending on the CPU in question.

  Inside PMC class dependent code, row indices are relative to the
  PMCs supported by the PMC class; MI code in "hwpmc_mod.c" translates
  global row indices before invoking class dependent operations.

- Augment the OP_GETCPUINFO request with the number of PMCs present
  in a PMC class.

- Move code common to Intel CPUs to file "hwpmc_intel.c".

- Move TSC handling to file "hwpmc_tsc.c".

1d3209ab83 MFP4:
- Implement sampling modes and logging support in hwpmc(4).

- Separate MI and MD parts of hwpmc(4) and allow sharing of
  PMC implementations across different architectures.
  Add support for P4 (EMT64) style PMCs to the amd64 code.

- New pmcstat(8) options: -E (exit time counts) -W (counts
  every context switch), -R (print log file).

- pmc(3) API changes, improve our ability to keep ABI compatibility
  in the future.  Add more 'alias' names for commonly used events.

- bug fixes & documentation.
