Thomas Richter 038586c343 perf list: Add s390 support for detailed/verbose PMU event description
'perf list' with flags -d and -v print a description (-d) or a very
verbose explanation (-v) of CPU specific counter events.  These
descriptions are provided with the json files in directory
pmu-events/arch/s390/*.json.

Display of these descriptions on s390 requires the corresponding json
files.

On s390 this does not work because function is_pmu_core() does not
detect the s390 directory name where the CPU specific events are listed.
On x86 it is:

  /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu

whereas on s390 it is:

  /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpum_cf
  /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpum_sf

Fix this by adding s390 directory name testing to function
is_pmu_core(). This is the same approach as taken for the ARM platform.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
