4.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@xxxxxxxxx> commit ee14ac0ef6827cd6f9a572cc83dd0191ea17812c upstream. Intel PT uses IP compression based on the last IP. For decoding purposes, 'last IP' is considered to be reset to zero whenever there is a synchronization packet (PSB). The decoder wasn't doing that, and was treating the zero value to mean that there was no last IP, whereas compression can be done against the zero value. Fix by setting last_ip to zero when a PSB is received and keep track of have_last_ip.
