[PATCH] [TRIVIAL] FIX: unintended variable name reuse

From: dl9pf
Date: Tue Apr 30 2013 - 06:04:31 EST


From: Jan-Simon MÃller <dl9pf@xxxxxx>

The variable name events_group is already in used and led to a compilation error
when using clang to build the Linux Kernel . The fix is just to rename the var.
No functional change. Please apply.

Fix suggested in discussion by PaX Team <pageexec@xxxxxxxxxxx>
