Will it not change?

I'd say that user would be interested in particular level or even just
level in subtree for PSI, so the opt-out may result in lots of explicit
disablements (or even watch for cgroups created and disable PSI there)
to get some performance back.

I have two suggestions based on the above:
1) Make the default globally configurable (mount option?)
2) Allow implicit enablement upon trigger creation

WDYT?
