Subject: perf, x86: Restrict the ANY flag
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=320ebf09cbb6d01954c9a060266aa8e0d27f4638;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

perf, x86: Restrict the ANY flag

The ANY flag can show SMT data of another task (like 'top'),
so we want to disable it when system-wide profiling is
disabled.
