This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled perf intel-pt: Fix intel_pt_fup_event() assumptions about setting state type to the 5.15-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: perf-intel-pt-fix-intel_pt_fup_event-assumptions-about-setting-state-type.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 4c761d805bb2d2ead1b9baaba75496152b394c80 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 10 Dec 2021 18:22:59 +0200 Subject: perf intel-pt: Fix intel_pt_fup_event() assumptions about setting state type From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@xxxxxxxxx> commit 4c761d805bb2d2ead1b9baaba75496152b394c80 upstream. intel_pt_fup_event() assumes it can overwrite the state type if there has been an FUP event, but this is an unnecessary and unexpected constraint on callers. Fix by touching only the state type flags that are affected by an FUP event.
