You don't have to do this if it's a nop, event::destroy can be NULL.

Looks like a whitespace mixup.

It would be nice to have a comment somewhere here explaining that you
have to set up tracer on each cpu in case of per-thread counter and
why. We must have discussed this, but I forgot already.

Btw, do you want to also set 'size' to 1 for cpu != -1 case?

Wouldn't it be easier to allocate the whole thing with one

event_data->cpu_data = kcalloc(size, sizeof(struct etm_cpu_data), GFP_KERNEL);

?
