Currently this is hidden behind perfmon_capable() since this is technically an info leak, given that this is a system wide metric. However the granularity reported here is always PAGE_SIZE aligned, which matches what the core kernel is already willing to expose to userspace if querying how many free RAM pages there are on the system, and that doesn't need any special privileges. In addition other drm drivers seem happy to expose this. The motivation here if with oneAPI where they want to use the system wide 'used' reporting here, so not the per-client fdinfo stats. This has also come up with some perf overlay applications wanting this information.
