Could you give more details on your suggestion? Would put_many just 
decrement the count? But wouldn't that still require a lock? Multiple 
event_destroys can call the function at the same time right?


One thing that can be done is to take forcewake on first count and 
release it when the last event is destroyed in cases of multiple
pmu being used

This is the first rev for this patch. Open to suggestions

Background for this patch: force_wake is needed to read the timestamp
register required for engine events.Cannot take it while reading the 
register from pmu_read due to a lockdep splat (PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING).

The suggestion was to take forcewake throughout the duration of event 
being read
