Title:
  Provide kernel.perf_event_paranoid sysctl level 3

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Yakkety:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  The perf subsystem provides a rather large attack surface, and system
  owners would like a way to disable access to non-root users. This is
  already being done in Android and Debian, and I'd like to do the same
  on my Ubuntu systems. :)
