From 9450d14fb959336803e5209119eb422b667b96aa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Will Deacon Date: Wed, 27 Nov 2013 13:54:39 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "ARM: 7556/1: perf: fix updated event period in response to PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD" This reverts commit 3581fe0ef37ce12ac7a4f74831168352ae848edc. Fixes to the handling of PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD in the core code mean we no longer have to play this horrible game.
