What I had in mind was a wp_idx field which works the same way as 
dtm_idx, i.e. we just store the allocated index per relevant DN, since a 
single event can never use *both* watchpoints on a single XP. Each index 
then need only be 0 or 1 since they're already scoped by the watchpoint 
direction of the base event, thus we should only need one bit per XP.

...and so for this we would only need more of a mild tweak to the 
existing design, something like:

static int arm_cmn_get_wp_idx(struct perf_event *event, int pos)
{
	struct arm_cmn_hw_event *hw = to_cmn_hw(event);

	return CMN_EVENT_EVENTID(event) + test_bit(&hw->wp_idx, pos);
}

This is recalculating way more than it needs to. It's only ever used 
within for_each_hw_dn(), which already has all the information to hand 
already - again, look at how hw->dtm_idx is managed. Furthermore I'd 
also prefer to similarly not conflate management of the per-event state 
with that of the DTM state (i.e. just have an arm_cmn_set_wp_idx() for 
updating the event data).

This must never fail - the purpose of val_add_event is to fill in the 
val structure with the combination of leader and sibling events which 
have *already* passed their own event_init calls been declared valid as 
a group. The body of validate_group then does the "what if?" version to 
test whether the group would remain valid if the *current* event were to 
be added.

The trick with the offset combine value relies on direct indexing to 
work, so I think we need to rejig the structure slightly to track 
distinct wp_count and wp_combine values (per direction) - that then 
becomes nicely consistent with the relationship between dtm_count and 
occupid, too.

Nit: I'd rather do this in terms of sizeof() so it's harder to break in 
future. And since it's going to end up being a memset() anyway I'd then 
probably just open-code that rather than mucking about with 
bytes-to-bits calculations.

TBH I'm not convinced it's even worth factoring out the "allocator" 
here, since inline it can be as simple as:

	int tmp, wp_idx = CMN_EVENT_EVENTID(event);
	...
	if (dtm->wp_event[wp_idx] && dtm->wp_event[++wp_idx])

(or perhaps follow the same while/if shape as for dtm_idx further up, if 
you think it's worth being more clear than concise)

Thanks,
Robin.
