    perf_counter, x86: Make NMI lockups more robust · aaba9801
    Ingo Molnar 提交于
    We have a debug check that detects stuck NMIs and returns with
    the PMU disabled in the global ctrl MSR - but i managed to trigger
    a situation where this was not enough to deassert the NMI.
    
    So clear/reset the full PMU and keep the disable count balanced when
    exiting from here. This way the box produces a debug warning but
    stays up and is more debuggable.
    
    [ Impact: in case of PMU related bugs, recover more gracefully ]
