Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/perf_counter: Log invalid data addresses as all 1s

From: Anton Blanchard <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2009 12:56:10 +1000

When we take an exception and the SDAR isn't synchronised we currently
log 0 as the address. Unfortunately this is a pretty common value, so
use ~OUL instead.
