I think that should read:

        for_each_set_bit(bit, x86_pmu.events_mask, ARRAY_SIZE(intel_event_id_to_hw_id))
                intel_perfmon_event_map[intel_event_id_to_hw_id[bit]] = 0;

There is no guarantee x86_pmu.max_events has any relation to the size of
intel_event_id_to_hw_id.

Changed it for you.
