[RFC PATCH 09/11] drm/i915: Add dev.i915.oa_event_paranoid sysctl option

[Robert Bragg]

Consistent with the kernel.perf_event_paranoid sysctl option that can
allow non-root users to access system wide cpu metrics, this can
optionally allow non-root users to access system wide OA counter metrics
from Gen graphics hardware.
