Well, I just copied it from the bpf_counter.c file which was the base
of this patch. Now I don't think I have many lines of code directly
came from the origin.

So I'm not sure what I can do. Do you want to update the
copyright year to 2021? Or are you ok with removing the
line at all?

Sounds good, will change.

Actually it'll update the prev_readings even if enabled = 0.
So I think it should get the correct counts after setting it to 1
without the bperf_cgrp__sync_counters().
