Robert recently confirmed that this series should not have an impact on 
AMD as it currently stands -- exclude attributes are ignored. And then 
his patch to require they be unset works fine with the first patch in 
this set because of the existing EINVAL fallback handling in perf-record 
and perf-top.

Did you have something else in mind that needs to be done?
