[PATCH] perf/rapl: fix crash in rapl_scale()
From: Stephane Eranian

This patch fixes a systematic crash in rapl_scale()
due to an invalid pointer.
The bug was introduced by commit:
commit 89cbc76768c2fa4ed95545bf961f3a14ddfeed21
Author: Christoph Lameter <cl@xxxxxxxxx>

x86: Replace __get_cpu_var uses
The fix is simple. Just put the parenthesis where it needs
to be, i.e., around rapl_pmu. To my surprise, the compiler
was not complaining about passing an integer instead of a
pointer.
