I was expecting this function to be almost the same as the timer
oa_poll_check_timer_cb(), something like, maybe with minor variations:

static void notify_perfmon_buffer_half_full(struct drm_i915_private *i915)
{
        struct i915_perf_stream *stream = i915->perf.exclusive_stream;

	if (oa_buffer_check_unlocked(stream)) {
                stream->pollin = true;
                wake_up(&stream->poll_wq);
        }
}

And consequently I was expecting to see zero changes to functions such as
oa_buffer_check_unlocked() and i915_perf_poll_locked() since everything
else is driven off stream->pollin as it is in case the timer callback.

So my question is why is notify_perfmon_buffer_half_full() not as I've
written above and what purpose are these new members half_full_count and
half_full_count_last serving? If it is to save a few cycles to adjust the
tail in oa_buffer_check_unlocked() (and I am not even sure of that) for an
interrupt which fires when half the buffer is full imo it is not worth it.
