The function searches used_mask for a bit in a for-loop bit by bit.
We can do it faster by using atomic find_and_set_bit().

The comment to the function says that it searches for the first free
counter, but obviously for_each_set_bit() searches for the first set
counter. The following test_and_set_bit() tries to enable already set
bit, which is weird.

This patch, by using find_and_set_bit(), fixes this automatically.

Sure, let's do things fast. Correctness is overrated anyway.

No it doesn't. It iterates over the counters the event can count on.

Maybe you could try to actually read the code?

This doesn't fix anything, but instead actively breaks the driver.

So now you're picking any possible counter, irrespective of the
possible affinity of the event. This is great.

Ok, I'll drop the patch. Sorry.
