Yes, as I know x86 generates memory samples from kernel, and SNOOPX_PEER
can be a useful snooping flag for other archs.
As a last resort if SNOOPX_PEER is rejected, we can rollback to use
existed flag (like reusing PERF_MEM_SNOOPX_FWD), though this would be
ambiguous for expressing the memory operations on Arm64.
Thanks,
Leo
