Subject: perf_counter: round-robin per-CPU counters too
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b82914ce33146186d554b0f5c41e4e13693614ce;p=linux-beck.git

perf_counter: round-robin per-CPU counters too

This used to be unstable when we had the rq->lock dependencies,
but now that they are that of the past we can turn on percpu
counter RR too.

[ Impact: handle counter over-commit for per-CPU counters too ]
