Well, really that's a clear sign that this could be improved - having
"max" mean both "maximum" and "maximum plus one" in the same context is
needlessly overcomplicated.

TBH, I can't see anyone caring much about the platform device itself,
since it's the perf pmu device that users actually want to interact
with. As long as the latter is easily identifiable, the name of the
former is mostly only relevant to us sanity-checking sysfs and
/proc/{interrupts,iomem} for development.
