Subject: [PATCH 4.12 025/196] perf intel-pt: Clear FUP flag on error

4.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@...el.com>

commit 6a558f12dbe85437acbdec5e149ea07b5554eced upstream.

Sometimes a FUP packet is associated with a TSX transaction and a flag is
set to indicate that. Ensure that flag is cleared on any error condition
because at that point the decoder can no longer assume it is correct.
