From: Rob Clark <robdclark at chromium.org>

Some clever folks figured out a way to use performance counters as a
side-channel[1].  But, other than the special case of using the perf
counters for system profiling, we can reset the counters across context
switches to protect against this.

This series introduces a SYSPROF param which a sufficiently privilaged
userspace (like Mesa's pps-producer, which already must run as root) to
opt-out, and makes the default behavior to reset counters on context
switches.
