Yes. It is supported in this series.

We have one counter at global level and another at domain level.
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/7a24bb182897acab3daaac1cadaabca3bcc73dc5.1725488488.git.babu.moger@amd.com/

Domain level counter is used for tracking the counters status in each domain.

Global counter is released once the counter is freed in all the domains.
