[PATCH 2/3] perf_event: Remove cpuc->enable check on KNC eventenable/disable
From: Vince Weaver
Date: Wed Oct 17 2012 - 13:03:39 EST
x86_pmu.enable() is called from x86_pmu_enable() with cpuc->enabled
set to 0. This means we weren't re-enabling the counters after
a context switch.
This patch just removes the check, as it should't be necessary
(and the equivelent x86_ generic code does not have the checks).
The origin of this problem is the KNC driver being based on the P6 one.
The P6 driver also has this issue, but works anyway due to various
lucky accidents.
