Implementing perf related APIs to activate and terminate
a trace session.  More specifically dealing with the sink
buffer's internal mechanic along with perf's API to start
and stop interactions with the ring buffers.

A matter of preference, but I'd say that it would be easier to review
this part if you merged all the buffer related patches together.

Does it make sense to do this in etb_update_buffer() instead?

The corresponding perf_aux_output_begin() is done in etm_event_add(),
I'd suggest that you do this in etm_event_del(),
unconditionally. Otherwise you're risking ending up with a refcount leak
and all sorts of horror.

I toyed with that idea for a while.  I would make sense if the ETB was
generating an interrupt when it is full but since cross-triggers
aren't implemented yet I didn't want to introduce code I can't test.

I'm in total agreement.  Since perf_aux_output_begin() is called in
etm_event_add(), perf_aux_output_end() should really be called in
etm_event_del().  The problem is that "buf->data_size" and "buf->lost"
are specific to the sink buffer and shouldn't be made public outside
of it.  Let me think about this further.
