+ * The PMCAT location for SH-X3 CPUs was quietly moved, while the CCBR
+ * and PMCTR locations remains tentatively constant. This change remains
+ * wholly undocumented, and was simply found through trial and error.
+ *
+ * Early cuts of SH-X3 still appear to use the SH-X/SH-X2 locations, and
+ * it's unclear when this ceased to be the case. For now we always use
+ * the new location (if future parts keep up with this trend then
+ * scanning for them at runtime also remains a viable option.)
+ *
+ * The gap in the register space also suggests that there are other
+ * undocumented counters, so this will need to be revisited at a later
+ * point in time.
