Fixes exist but they came too late: c5dee61: x86, bts: memory accounting bf53de9: x86, bts: add fork and exit handling and are queued up for v2.6.29. This shows that the facility is still not tested well enough to release into a stable kernel - disable it for now and reactivate in .29. In .29 the hardware-branch-tracer will use the DS/BTS facilities too - hopefully resulting in better code. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
