It's "mbm_local_bytes" in the matching logic later on.

WARN_ON(m == NULL) since we assume the caller has confirmed rr->evtid
is an MBM event?

One defensive WARN_ON((!pmbm_data) for this function to ensure evt_id
is valid for this call and the ones in the loop below?

Total takes precedence over local when the user picks both.

It looks like if I pass
"mba_MBps_event=mbm_total_bytes,mba_MBps_event=mbm_local_bytes" I can
set both flags true.
