Re: [PATCH 1/3] AMD Family10h IBS support for oProfile driver

Nitpicks only - and as I am not familiar
with this codebase I could not provide
proper code review.

Please add a space after '/*'
Several places.

We do not recommned use of uint32_t in the kernel. Use plain u32.
uint32_t belongs to a namespace outside the kernel.
(googling will find lots of discussion on the topic but I see code
just above using u8 so at least be consistent and use u32)

Two hardcoded numbers on two lines??
