I'm not sure I agree with that bit.  I don't think it was ever worth
micro-optimizing like this.  What does it gain us?  Two fewer atomics?
 It's not like the bad old days when it took a lock.

ANV still calls reset_stats before every set of execbuf (sometimes
more than one) but I've never once seen it show up on a perf trace.
execbuf, on the other hand, that does show up and pretty heavy
sometimes.

I'd like to agree on what to add before adding something
