why do you use "-"  instead of ":"?

I think we need to document somewhere, but at the very least in the
commit message what the event count actually is. Let me see if I get
this right:  if userspace is sampling every 1sec, and assuming the gpu
is at 700MHz for the first 0.5sec and at 1.4 GHz, userspace should
expect to see ~1050 as the value. Correct?  I find this frequency
handling very different from anything else reported via perf. Other
than i915, are there any other cases you know of?

3 cases above: please stop changing unrelated lines. They were fine
the way they were.

	struct xe_pmu *pmu = container_of(event->pmu, typeof(*pmu), base);

typeof(type) is odd.

with my suggestion to drop the timer_enabled
this would be:

xe_pmu_start_timer(pmu)
{
	if (pmu->n_active++ == 0) {
		...
	}
}

if (is_gt_frequency_event(id)) {
	pmu->active_count[gt->info.id][id]++;
	xe_pmu_start_timer(pmu);
}

rather call hrtimer_cancel() here?

 From your code above it doesn't think you need both "timer_enabled" and
"n_active". Calling it active would be better. == 0 means "no".

Also group them in a substruct like above, because  "n_active" doesn't
give any hint this is only about the very few events that use a timer.
