+Subject: perf,x86: fix kernel crash with PEBS/BTS after suspend/resume
+
+From: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com>
+
+commit 1d9d8639c063caf6efc2447f5f26aa637f844ff6 upstream.
+
+This patch fixes a kernel crash when using precise sampling (PEBS)
+after a suspend/resume. Turns out the CPU notifier code is not invoked
+on CPU0 (BP). Therefore, the DS_AREA (used by PEBS) is not restored properly
+by the kernel and keeps it power-on/resume value of 0 causing any PEBS
+measurement to crash when running on CPU0.
+
+The workaround is to add a hook in the actual resume code to restore
+the DS Area MSR value. It is invoked for all CPUS. So for all but CPU0,
+the DS_AREA will be restored twice but this is harmless.
