Introduce a new perf_ioctl command to change the OA configuration of the active stream. This allows the OA stream to be reconfigured between batch buffers, giving greater flexibility in sampling. We inject a request into the OA context to reconfigure the stream asynchronously on the GPU in between and ordered with execbuffer calls. Original patch for dynamic reconfiguration by Lionel Landwerlin.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
