4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit ede271b059463731cbd6dffe55ffd70d7dbe8392 upstream. Through: validate_event() x86_pmu.get_event_constraints(.idx=-1) tfa_get_event_constraints() dyn_constraint() cpuc->constraint_list[-1] is used, which is an obvious out-of-bound access. In this case, simply skip the TFA constraint code, there is no event constraint with just PMC3, therefore the code will never result in the empty set.
