Unlike other architectures, which allow raw events to propagate into the hardware counters with little interference, the limited number of events on Alpha and the strict event <-> counter relationships mean that raw events actually correspond to the Linux-specific Alpha events, rather than anything defined by the architecture. This patch adds a new callback to alpha_pmu_t for validating the raw event encoding with the Linux event types for the PMU, preventing the out-of-bounds array access.
