[PATCH] [1/11] i386: Reserve the right performance counter for the Intel PerfMon NMI watchdog

From: Andi Kleen
Date: Fri Jul 20 2007 - 11:38:53 EST



From: Björn Steinbrink <B.Steinbrink@xxxxxx>

The Intel PerfMon NMI watchdog reserves the first performance counter,
but uses the second one. Make it correctly reserve the second one.
