Writing 0 to the sysfs will clear the counter, writing any other
value is not allowed.

Description:
Use a counter for counting cycles. This is used to repurpose/dedicate
any of the counters in the block to counting cycles. Each counter is
represented by a bit (bit 0 for counter0, bit1 for counter1 and so on)
and setting the corresponding bit will reserve that specific counter
for counting cycles and override the event<N> setting.
