Yes! that would be cleaner, will add it in next version.

Good question, I went back and looked thru the code, it turns out that we 
are not going thru the code path that checks this flag and decides whether 
to run on the local cpu(cpu on which perf is running) or the event->cpu.

So, having or not having this flag doesnt make a difference here, I did a 
small experiment for this. 

On a single package system, any core should be able to read the energy-pkg 
RAPL MSR and return the value, so there would be no need for a smp call to 
the event->cpu, but if we look thru the ftrace below we can see that only 
core 0 executes the pmu event even though we launched the perf stat for 
core 1.

So, as we always use the event->cpu to run the event, the per-core PMU
is not being affected by this flag.

Anyway in next version, I will only selectively enable this flag for 
package scope events. But we will need to look into fixing this 
ineffective flag.

I was not able to use DEVICE_ATTR, because there is already a "device_attribute dev_attr_cpumask_name" 
created for package PMU cpumask using DEVICE_ATTR(). 
So I had to create a "device_attribute dev_attr_per_core_cpumask" manually 
to avoid variable name clash.

Correct, will fix in next version.

Makes sense, will modify.

Yes, I went thru it, I see that separate variables are being used to 
mark the valid events for package and core scope and a wrapper fn around 
perf_msr_probe is created, will see if that will make sense here as well.

Thanks for the review,
