[PATCH 4.0 123/220] powerpc/perf: Cap 64bit userspace backtraces to PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sat May 02 2015 - 17:06:24 EST


4.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 9a5cbce421a283e6aea3c4007f141735bf9da8c3 upstream.

We cap 32bit userspace backtraces to PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH
(currently 127), but we forgot to do the same for 64bit backtraces.
