Subject: perf_counter: Increase mmap limit
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a3862d3f814ce7dfca9eed56ac23d29db3aee8d5;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

perf_counter: Increase mmap limit

In a default 'perf top' run the tool will create a counter for
each online CPU. With enough CPUs this will eventually exhaust
the default limit.

So scale it up with the number of online CPUs.
