Subject: perf_counter tools: increase limits, fix
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=85a9f9200226ddffc2ea50dae6a8df04c033ecd4;p=linux-beck.git

perf_counter tools: increase limits, fix

NR_CPUS and NR_COUNTERS goes up quadratic ... 1024x4096 was far
too ambitious upper limit - go for 256x256 which is still plenty.

[ Impact: reduce perf tool memory consumption ]
