Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 7/8] x86, perf: Only allow rdpmc if a perf_event is mapped

> We currently allow any process to use rdpmc.  This significantly

The current task(T-a on CPU A) is asking CPUs(A, B, C, D) to refresh pce, and looks
the current task(T-d on CPU D) is disturbed if T-d loaded CR4 when going on CPU D.
