In the Armv8 ARM (ARM DDI 0487F.c), chapter "D10.2.6 Events packet", it describes the event bit is valid with specific payload requirement. For example, the Last Level cache access event, the bit is defined as: E[8], byte 1 bit [0], when SZ == 0b01 , when SZ == 0b10 , or when SZ == 0b11 It requires the payload size is at least 2 bytes, when byte 1 (start counting from 0) is valid, E[8] (bit 0 in byte 1) can be used for LLC access event type. For safety, the code checks the condition for payload size firstly, if meet the requirement for payload size, then continue to parse event type. If review function arm_spe_get_payload(), it has used cast, so any bytes beyond the valid size have been set to zeros. For this reason, we don't need to check payload size anymore afterwards when parse events, thus this patch removes payload size conditions.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
