Uuuh, how? Anything PEBS would have the same problem. Sure, precise_ip
== 1 will not correct the IP, but the stack will not match regardless.

You need IP,SP(,BP) to be a consistent set _AND_ have it match the
current stack, PEBS simply cannot do that, because the regs get recorded
(much) earlier than the PMI and the stack can have changed in the
meantime.
