From: Will Deacon Date: Tue, 6 Mar 2012 16:34:22 +0000 (+0100) Subject: ARM: 7355/1: perf: clear overflow flag when disabling counter on ARMv7 PMU X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=99c1745b9c76910e195889044f914b4898b7c9a5;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git ARM: 7355/1: perf: clear overflow flag when disabling counter on ARMv7 PMU When disabling a counter on an ARMv7 PMU, we should also clear the overflow flag in case an overflow occurred whilst stopping the counter. This prevents a spurious overflow being picked up later and leading to either false accounting or a NULL dereference.
