x86, perfcounters: read out MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS with counters disabled Impact: make perfcounter NMI and IRQ sequence more robust Make __smp_perf_counter_interrupt() a bit more conservative: first disable all counters, then read out the status. Most invocations are because there are real events, so there's no performance impact. Code flow gets a bit simpler as well this way. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
