Re: [PATCH v12 10/17] counter: Add character device interface

This patch introduces a character device interface for the Counter
subsystem. Device data is exposed through standard character device read
operations. Device data is gathered when a Counter event is pushed by
the respective Counter device driver. Configuration is handled via ioctl
operations on the respective Counter character device node.

Since this is just the next watch list and doesn't involve
enabled events, we should be able to use a mutex here instead
of disabling interrupts. This is a rather length operation
to have interrupts disabled when we don't really need to.

The mutex I suggested for next_events_list should probably be held
across the call to watch_validate() and counter_set_event_node().
Otherwise a new item could be added in between the time it was
validated and when it was added making it no longer valid.

Probably not likely to ever happen, but theoretially possible.

Not sure if this is a _good_ idea, but if status is a signed int, then
it could have negative error codes and positive values could be used
for event-specific non-error status. I can't think of any practical use
though. And forcing it to only be errno codes (0 - 255) probably encourages
better drivers anyway.
