New issues that were discovered while making the tests work on Gen8+ :

  - we need to measure timings between periodic reports and discard all
    other kind of reports

  - it seems periodicity of the reports can be affected outside of RC6
    (frequency change), we can detect this by looking at the amount of
    clock cycles per timestamp deltas

I think this would be easier to review if we split this into two patches...

Also, somewhat worrying is that I've yet to see the oa-exponents test
pass on my BDW machine.

Was your screen off?
I don't think so, same result with it on/off though. I'm guessing that
is passes for you then?

Here's the pastebin again, since the other one is now toast:

Chris helped prove that this probably be power management preventing the unit to write its report to memory. I don't think there is a way to tune that from userspace, so I guess I'll try to detect this. It's pretty reproducible on my system with screen off.
Maybe you're on battery only?
