This loop is broken beyond repair. If pmu_ptr->mem_info is not NULL, then
ptr will happily increment to the point where it wraps around to
NULL. Oh well.

This function is global because?

The function placement is horrible. This function belongs to the pmu init
stuff and wants to be placed there and not five pages away in the middle of
unrelated functions.

That machinery here is racy as hell in several aspects.

CPU0 	       	       	       	       CPU1

atomic_inc_ret(core_events[0]) -> 1

preemption()
			       	       atomic_inc_ret(core_events[0]) -> 2
				       return 0;
				       
				       Uses the event, without counters
				       being started until the preempted
				       task comes on the CPU again.

Here is another one:

CPU0 	       	       	       	       CPU1

atomic_dec_ret(core_events[0]) -> 0
				       atomic_inc_ret(core_events[1] -> 1
				       mutex_lock();
mutex_lock()			       start counter();
				       mutex_unlock()

stop_counter();
mutex_unlock();
				       Yay, another stale event!

Brilliant stuff that, or maybe not so much.

What's the point of using atomic_dec_return here if you ignore the return
value? Not that it matters much as the whole logic is crap anyway.

Sure ret needs to stay initialized, just in case imc_mem_init() does not
return anything magically, right?

Oh, so now you replaced the goto with ret. What is actually taking care of
the cleanup if that fails?

Cute. You cleanuo the memory stuff and then you let the hotplug core invoke
the offline callbacks which then deal with freed memory. 

Thanks,
