Resetting performance counters in /proc

Exporting information from the kernel is relatively simple with the
/proc file system. However, I would like to reset some of the
counters, either through write() or through truncate(). Where would I
look to see how to accomplish this? Do I have to worry about mutual
exclusion and if so, what's the preferred way to prevent context
switches in a particular section of code?
