dt-bindings: interconnect: qcom-bwmon: Add Maili cpu-bwmon compatiblegrafted
Add the Qualcomm Maili SoC compatible string for the CPU bandwidth monitor (BWMONv4). This falls back to the sdm845-bwmon compatible, consistent with the existing pattern used by other recent SoCs such as sm8750 and kaanapali.

+NAME
+----
+perf-data - Data file related processing
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+'perf data' [<common options>] <command> [<options>]",
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Data file related processing.
+
+COMMANDS
+--------
+convert::
+ Converts perf data file into another format.
+ It's possible to set data-convert debug variable to get debug messages from conversion,
+ like:
+ perf --debug data-convert data convert ...
+
+OPTIONS for 'convert'
+---------------------
+--to-ctf::
+ Triggers the CTF conversion, specify the path of CTF data directory.
+
+--to-json::
+ Triggers JSON conversion. Specify the JSON filename to output.
+
+--tod::
+ Convert time to wall clock time.
+
+-i::
+ Specify input perf data file path.
+
+-f::
+--force::
+ Don't complain, do it.
+
+--time::
+ Only convert samples within given time window: <start>,<stop>. Times
+ have the format seconds.nanoseconds. If start is not given (i.e. time
+ string is ',x.y') then analysis starts at the beginning of the file. If
+ stop time is not given (i.e. time string is 'x.y,') then analysis goes
+ to end of file. Multiple ranges can be separated by spaces, which
+ requires the argument to be quoted e.g. --time "1234.567,1234.789 1235,"
+
+ Also support time percent with multiple time ranges. Time string is
+ 'a%/n,b%/m,...' or 'a%-b%,c%-%d,...'.
+
+ For example:
+ Select the second 10% time slice:
+
+ perf data convert --to-json out.json --time 10%/2
+
+ Select from 0% to 10% time slice:
+
+ perf data convert --to-json out.json --time 0%-10%
+
+ Select the first and second 10% time slices:
+
+ perf data convert --to-json out.json --time 10%/1,10%/2
+
+ Select from 0% to 10% and 30% to 40% slices:
+
+ perf data convert --to-json out.json --time 0%-10%,30%-40%
+
+-v::
+--verbose::
+ Be more verbose (show counter open errors, etc).
+
+--all::
+ Convert all events, including non-sample events (comm, fork, ...), to output.
+ Default is off, only convert samples.
