We certainly can.

Btw, someday, we could make this an array of attr->config bits defs and their corresponding drvdata->config bit defs and be done with it, rather than adding separate checks like.
A conversion must be made because configuration bits differ between ETMv3.x and ETMv4. Since ETMv3.x came first I kept the bits specified for that architecture but it is only a matter of time before that strategy doesn't work anymore. I envision a time in the not so distant future where new options will come out with configuration bits completely orthogonal to what we currently have. When that happens user space will have to set attr->config for each ETM flavour, essentially removing the need for bit conversion. At that point attr->config and drvdata->config will be the same for each ETM architecture.

nit: Should this be really exposed to the perf tool ? The tool must always rely on the "format" strings, isn't it ? That way, we are free to change the kernel definitions and get the tool working everywhere ?
We don't have a choice to copy coresight-pmu.h over to the tools' side. Otherwise there is a script that compares the perf headers with the kernel headers that complains bitterly, something that makes Acme very unhappy.
Ok. But, my question is, why do the perf tool need to know this from the header file. AFAICS, all of this must be exposed via sysfs format. We could certainly remove the CFG bits.
