The following panic can happen when mmap is called before the pmu add
callback which sets the hardware counter index: this happens for example
with the following command `perf record --no-bpf-event -n kill`.

[ 99.463335] Kernel BUG [#2]
To circumvent this, try to enable userspace access to the hardware counter
when it is selected in addition to when the event is mapped. And vice-versa
when the event is stopped/unmapped.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
