The relevant information can be found here in this thread,
http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/8/4/174. I'm working on some patches for
this but they're not finished yet. I can probably get something to
show by next week.

The discussion started because the performance counters on SH do not
generate an interrupt on overflow, so we need to periodically sample
them. Am I correct in thinking that the energy counters also do not
generate an interrupt on overflow and that's why you wrote the event
as a software event?
