3.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jan-Simon Möller <dl9pf@xxxxxx> commit 1b0dac2ac6debdbf1541e15f2cede03613cf4465 upstream. The variable name events_group is already in used and led to a compilation error when using clang to build the Linux Kernel . The fix is just to rename the var. No functional change. Please apply.
