Subject: [PATCH 1/5] x86, perf: Fix LBR call stack save/restore

From: Andi Kleen <ak@...ux.intel.com>

This fixes a bug added with the earlier 90405aa02. The bug
could lead to lost LBR call stacks. When restoring the LBR
state we need to use the TOS of the previous context, not
the current context. To do that we need to save/restore the tos.
