ugh, I guess I'm too used to the perf tool to fail build on unused variable :-\
v3 attached
thanks,

It's possible to setup PEBS events and get only errors and not
a single data, like on SNB-X (model 45) and IVB-EP (model 62)
via 2 perf commands running simultaneously:
taskset -c 1 ./perf record -c 4 -e branches:pp -j any -C 10
This leads to soft lock up, because the error path of the
intel_pmu_drain_pebs_nhm does not account event->hw.interrupt
for error PEBS interrupts so the event is not eventually
stopped when it gets over the max_samples_per_tick limit.

Adding perf_event_account_interrupt with event's interrupt
and frequency checks and calling it from drain_pebs's error
path.
Keeping pending_kill and pending_wakeup check up logic only
in __perf_event_overflow path, because they make sense only
in case if there's any data to deliver.
