You're contributing to death-by-a-thousand-cuts here. By making all this
unconditional you're putting distros in a bind. Most of their users will
likely not care about this, but if they enable it, they'll still pay the
price for having it.

Even static counters will have cache misses etc..

So yes, for the few people that actually care about this stuff, this
might be a bit faster, but IMO it gets the econimics all backwards,
you're making everybody pay the price instead of only those that care.

Also note that you can have your tracepoint based handler have
statically allocated data just fine.
