That 'tnt' still cracks me up, I keep seeing explosions.

I changed that like so:

--- a/arch/x86/events/intel/core.c
+++ b/arch/x86/events/intel/core.c
@@ -3508,7 +3508,7 @@ tnt_get_event_constraints(struct cpu_hw_

 	if (event->attr.precise_ip == 3) {
 		/* Force instruction:ppp on PMC0 and Fixed counter 0 */
-		if (EVENT_CONFIG(event->hw.config) == X86_CONFIG(.event=0xc0))
+		if (constraint_match(&fixed_counter0_constraint, event->hw.config))
 			return &fixed0_counter0_constraint;
 
 		return &counter0_constraint;


And maybe we should do:

	s/fixed_counter0_constraint/fixed0_constraint/'

Those two constraints only differ by a single character, that's bad for
reading comprehension.

In fact, I just did that too.
