Yeah, that doesn't really work... what is the "last event" relative to? 
Order of arguments to arbitrary tools? Order of perf_event_open 
syscalls? Order in which events are actually scheduled on the PMU? 
(which users can't even control - think event rotation)

To be practical I think you'll have to handle this the same way as 
arm_smmuv3_pmu's global filtering, and only allow events with matching 
filter configs to be scheduled together.

This register map quite clearly follows the Arm CoreSight PMU 
architecture. Nice to see it being used, but would you mind having a go 
at hooking up your imp-def bits to the existing arm_cspmu driver?

Thanks,
Robin.
