We cannot assume that because hwc->idx == assign[i], we can avoid reprogramming the counter in hw_perf_enable(). The event may have been scheduled out and another event may have been programmed into this counter. Thus, we need a more robust way of verifying if the counter still contains config/data related to an event. This patch adds a generation number to each counter on each cpu. Using this mechanism we can verify reliabilty whether the content of a counter corresponds to an event.
