'core_pmus' and 'other_pmus' are independent of hw core pmu and uncore
pmus. For example, AMD IBS PMUs are present in each SMT-thread but they
belongs to 'other_pmus'. Add a comment describing what these list
contains and how they are treated.

+ * core_pmus:  A PMU belongs to core_pmus if it's name is "cpu" or it's sysfs

+ *             hw. i.e. PMUs belonging to other_pmus must have pmu->is_core=0
