Looking at the error paths all the errors are silent failures. On the 
failure in mon_event_read() this could potentially be handled by setting
the "err" field in struct rmid_read ... at least then the caller can print
an error instead of displaying a zero count to the user. The other failures
are harder to handle though. Considering that these contexts are allocated and
freed so often, why not allocate them once (perhaps in struct rdt_hw_domain?)
on driver load with clear error handling?
