Just to be sure we are on the same page: under task we understand the
process which is being monitored with the perf: "perf stat -e <ev>
task.sh"? Yes, each process may have few DRM contexts, so we are in a
tricky space:).

If we will decide to support per-task counters in the future, would it
be possible to preserve global mode providing end-user a choice: monitor
per-process or globally?
