Sorry about that :-(

So this is the case where data can be collected on x86 and then processed on
another arch.

Originally, it wasn't wanted to be compiled in:

	http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=142445842131011

But that has been causing problems:

	http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=144109627003194

So this seems better.
