That does sound like a good idea. It is nice finally getting to the state
where you can fuzz for hours (rather than minutes) without hitting a bug.
Of course that might change. Development of the fuzzer has more or less
stalled for the past 6 months as I was spending all of my time
reporting/chasing bugs rather than enhancing the fuzzer.
In any case if we can get the recent patches applied in time for 3.15 I
think it will turn out to be a nice release perf-event-stability wise.
