Weird, amd_pmu_lbr_reset() is called from these places:

  - amd_pmu_lbr_sched_task(): during task sched-in during 
    context-switching, this should already have preemption disabled.

  - amd_pmu_lbr_add(): this gets indirectly called by amd_pmu::add 
    (amd_pmu_add_event()), called by event_sched_in(), which too should have 
    preemption disabled.

I clearly must have missed some additional place it gets called in.

Could you please cite the full log of the amd_pmu_lbr_reset() call that 
caused the critical section warning?

Thanks,

	Ingo
