X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e04ed38d4e0cd32141f723560efcc8252b0241e2;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git sparc64: Fix Niagara2 perf event handling. For chips like Niagara2 that have true overflow indications in the %pcr (which we don't actually need and don't use) the interrupt signal persists until the overflow bits are cleared by an explicit %pcr write.
