Could I post v2 which basically refers to your patch but removes some conditions since I see some
issues in test if we use these conditions.
1. Remove '!event->attr.exclude_hv || !event->attr.exclude_host ||
!event->attr.exclude_guest' at the entry of sanitize_sample_regs().
2. Remove '!attr.exclude_hv || !attr.exclude_host || !attr.exclude_guest'
at the perf_event_open syscall entry.
Thanks
