Given that none of the 6 instances above differ, this looks suspiciously
redundant. AFAICS max_period has been there from the very beginning with
no explicit justification, so I can only assume it was anticipating more
future variability than actually turned out. With 8 years of hindsight
now, I think it would be reasonable to assume that counters are 32-bit
except in certain special cases where they might be 64-bit; since that
can't be described by a single "counter size" value anyway, and by the
end of this series we have the means to handle it correctly via flags, I
propose that we just get rid of this and hard-code 32 in
arm_pmu_max_period().

Nit: "1ULL << ..."

Otherwise, looks fine to me.
