 *
 * Each CPU has a local buffer that stores PC value/event
 * pairs. We also log context switches when we notice them.
 * Eventually each CPU's buffer is processed into the global
 * event buffer by sync_cpu_buffers().
 *
 * We use a local buffer for two reasons: an NMI or similar
 * interrupt cannot synchronise, and high sampling rates
 * would lead to catastrophic global synchronisation if
 * a global buffer was used.
