Happy to see you having a stab at this, however I fear I you're in for a 
fair dose of "if it were this simple I might have already done it" :)

Sorry, this breaks group validation.

I don't really get this logic either - we can allocate a potentially 
different index for every DTM, but only store the most recent one?

Oh, I guess this trying to avoid some of that issue, but I still don't 
think it works - say we add an event targeted to XP B, which sees WP0 is 
free on DTM B so allocates index 0; then we add another event 
aggregating across XPs A and B, which sees WP0 is free on DTM A, 
allocates index 0, then goes on to stomp WP0 on DTM B as well - oops.

I don't think it's going to be feasible to do this without tracking the 
full allocation state with a wp_idx bitmap in the hw_event - at least it 
only needs to be half the size of dtm_idx, so I think there's still room.

Thanks,
Robin.
