Actually a couple of further improvements to the loop above are
possible. First there is no reason to start at previous_tail, we can just
start at the aligned hw_tail itself. Therefore the loop becomes:

                while (OA_TAKEN(tail, head) >= report_size) {
                        u32 *report32 = (void *)(stream->oa_buffer.vaddr + 
tail);

                        if (report32[0] != 0 || report32[1] != 0)
                                break;

                        tail = (tail - report_size) & (OA_BUFFER_SIZE - 1);
                }

Further, there is no reason to go back to the head but only to the old
tail. Therefore:

                head = stream->oa_buffer.head - gtt_offset;
                old_tail = stream->oa_buffer.tail - gtt_offset;

                hw_tail -= gtt_offset;
                tail = hw_tail;

                while (OA_TAKEN(tail, old_tail) >= report_size) {
                        u32 *report32 = (void *)(stream->oa_buffer.vaddr + 
tail);

                        if (report32[0] != 0 || report32[1] != 0)
                                break;

                        tail = (tail - report_size) & (OA_BUFFER_SIZE - 1);
                }

Please review and see if these two improvements are possible. Thanks!
