From f13c12c634e124d5d31f912b969d542a016d6105 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Tue, 15 Dec 2009 19:43:11 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] perf_events: Fix perf_event_attr layout The miss-alignment of bp_addr created a 32bit hole, causing different structure packings on 32 and 64 bit machines. Fix that by moving __reserve_2 into that hole. Further, remove the useless struct and redundant __bp_reserve muck.
