As with the previous patch, it may be a good idea to split the
patch to arm64 and trbe parts.

minor nit: trbe_needs_{ctxt_sync, isb}_after_enable() ?

minor nit: This implies we do the TRBE programming in the following
manner in the common case (i.e, TRBE enabled in the beginning of a
session).
   -> set TRBE LIMIT
   -> read TRBE LIMIT
   -> set TRBE ENABLED

Could we please optimize this ? I believe the buf->trbe_limit
must hold the LIMITR value at any point in time. And thus this
function could simply be :

set_trbe_enabled(trbe_buf)
{
	limitr = trbe_buf->limit | LIMITR_ENABLE
	write(limitr, TRBLIMITR_EL1);
	...
}

Otherwise looks good to me
