On production systems with ETMs enabled, it is preferred to exclude kernel mode(NS EL1) tracing for security concerns and support only userspace(NS EL0) tracing. Perf subsystem interface for ETMs use the newly introduced kernel config CONFIG_EXCLUDE_KERNEL_HW_ITRACE to exclude kernel mode tracing, but there is an additional interface via sysfs for ETMs which also needs to be handled to exclude kernel mode tracing. So we use this same generic kernel config to handle the sysfs mode of tracing. This config is disabled by default and would not affect the current configuration which has both kernel and userspace tracing enabled by default.
