    perf/x86/amd: Fix AMD BRS period adjustment · 3c27b0c6
    Peter Zijlstra authored
    There's two problems with the current amd_brs_adjust_period() code:
    
     - it isn't in fact AMD specific and wil always adjust the period;
    
     - it adjusts the period, while it should only adjust the event count,
       resulting in repoting a short period.
    
    Fix this by using x86_pmu.limit_period, this makes it specific to the
    AMD BRS case and ensures only the event count is adjusted while the
    reported period is unmodified.
