Is that something you will want to do in the future? If you go with your
current approach of exposing a single "tad" unit to userspace, then you
won't be able to change that.

For the L3 PMUs (including on TX2). we expose per-node PMUs so why shouldn't
we do something similar here and expose each TAD region separately? Even if
userspace drives them all together, it gives you more flexibility in the
future if you _do_ want to be partition them up.

If we expose each TAD individually, then this won't matter, but I'd be
inclined to move the counter summation outside of the cmpxchg() loop
given that readq (why not _relaxed?) is probably quite slow.

This mask doesn't do anything.

Please use braces around a multi-line conditional statement.
