      perf_event, x86: Fix 'perf sched record' crashing the machine · 7d428966
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      Chris Malley reported that 'perf sched record' sometimes
crashes his box with:

[  389.272175] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffb300

The problem is that the box has no lapic enabled:

  [    0.042445] Local APIC not detected. Using dummy APIC emulation.

The below seems like the best fix. We disabled all lapic bits, except
the self-IPI-resend logic.

      perf_event: Update PERF_EVENT_FORK header definition · a6f10a2f
      Anton Blanchard authored 
      PERF_EVENT_FORK always outputs the time field, so update the header
to reflect this.

      perf_event, powerpc: Fix compilation after big perf_counter rename · a8f90e90
      Paul Mackerras authored 
      This fixes two places in the powerpc perf_event (perf_counter) code
where 'list_entry' needs to be changed to 'group_entry', but were
missed in commit 65abc865 ("perf_counter: Rename list_entry ->
group_entry, counter_list -> group_list").

This also changes 'event' back to 'counter' in a couple of
contexts:

* Field and function names that deal with the limited-function
  counters: it's really the hardware counters whose function is
  limited, not the events that they count.  Hence:

  MAX_LIMITED_HWEVENTS -> MAX_LIMITED_HWCOUNTERS
  limited_event -> limited_counter
  freeze/thaw_limited_events -> freeze/thaw_limited_counters

* The machine-specific PMU description struct (struct power_pmu): this
  renames 'n_event' back to 'n_counter' since it really describes how
  many hardware counters the machine has.  (Renaming this back avoids
  a compile error in each of the machine-specific PMU back-ends where
  they initialize their power_pmu struct.)
