well I finally got a current git 64-bit kernel booted on the pi3.

Challenge: USB known to be broken currently, so no keyboard or ethernet.
Extra challenge: had the RX/TX lines switched on the serial connector.
Bonus challenge: the bcm2837 dts file doesn't enable armv8 PMU

I got through all of that, only to find:

$ uname -a
Linux pi3-git 4.13.0-rc4-00152-g2627393 #2 SMP PREEMPT Fri Aug 11 13:58:42 EDT 2017 aarch64 GNU/Linux

$ ./mmap_multiple 
Trying to mmap same perf_event fd multiple times...        PASSED

So maybe the issue was fixed between 4.9 and current?
