Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/perfctr: Check oprofile_cpu_type for NULL before using it

From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 06 Aug 2009 14:02:36 +1000

If the current CPU doesn't support performance counters,
cur_cpu_spec->oprofile_cpu_type can be NULL. The current
perfctr modules don't test for that case and would thus
crash.

Bug reported by David Woodhouse
