The x86_perf_regs->xmm_regs saves the pointer to PEBS record.
We don't allocate space for it.
The related code can be found at 04/23 "perf/x86/intel: Support adaptive 
PEBSv4"

+	if (format_size & PEBS_DATACFG_XMMS) {
+		struct pebs_xmm *xmm = next_record;
+
+		next_record = xmm + 1;
+		perf_regs->xmm_regs = xmm->xmm;
+	}

This patch only include the generic support for x86_perf_regs.

I will add is_sampling_event() check as below.

if (is_sampling_event(event) &&
     (event->attr.sample_regs_user & ~PEBS_REGS))
          return -EINVAL;
if (is_sampling_event(event) &&

     (!x86_pmu.has_xmm_regs || !event->attr.precise_ip))
         return -EINVAL;

I'm not familiar with AMD. I just google it. It looks like AMD also has 
XMM registers.

It means that XMM registers can be collected in PEBS record.
How about the name "pebs_has_xmm_regs"?
