To be on the safer side, I believe 'val' should be unsigned long, to match the size of local_t.

I think the above check, and the mode parameter itself is superfluous, given
that this is a static function used internally only for the PERF mode.
Similarly for the _sysfs version.

We should be using local_cmpxchg() here. Otherwise, we could corrupt the mode.
Similarly for the _sysfs version. I though the previous version of your series
did that.

Could we get here when CS_DISABLED ? If not, we could get rid of the check
for CS_MODE_SYSFS below.

See above

Same comments as for the etb side.
