[ 03/31] oprofile, x86: Fix wrapping bug in op_x86_get_ctrl()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Oct 25 2012 - 20:05:45 EST


3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 44009105081b51417f311f4c3be0061870b6b8ed upstream.

The "event" variable is a u16 so the shift will always wrap to zero
making the line a no-op.
