[171/289] latencytop: fix per task accumulator

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Dec 07 2010 - 20:02:26 EST


2.6.36-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Ken Chen <kenchen@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 38715258aa2e8cd94bd4aafadc544e5104efd551 upstream.

Per task latencytop accumulator prematurely terminates due to erroneous
placement of latency_record_count. It should be incremented whenever a
new record is allocated instead of increment on every latencytop event.

Also fix search iterator to only search known record events instead of
blindly searching all pre-allocated space.
