This patch provides guarantee to the sysadmin that when TFA is disabled, no PMU
event is using PMC3 when the echo command returns. Vice-Versa, when TFA
is enabled, PMU can use PMC3 immediately (to eliminate possible multiplexing).

Then on another connection, sysadmin does:
$ echo 1 >/sys/devices/cpu/allow_tsx_force_abort
Then perf stat adjusts the events immediately:
