Configure timestamps to be emitted at regular intervals in the trace
stream to temporally correlate instructions executed on different CPUs.

To be frank, that looks like a separate fix for the existing driver,
from this series.

Should this be pr_debug ? This could be easily triggered to flood the
dmesg. Also, I think the return code could be -ENODEV or -ENOSPC rather
than -EINVAL in this case.

We could delay the initialisation until we find the resource selector
to avoid clearing them later.

Same as above. This shouldn't be an error, may be a debug. It is a
crunch of resources, a usage error from the user and not kernel.

Rest all looks good to me.
