Subject[PATCH 51/53] perf intel-pt: Fix CYC timestamp calculation after OVF
Date
From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>

CYC packet timestamp calculation depends upon CBR which was being
cleared upon overflow (OVF). That can cause errors due to failing to
synchronize with sideband events. Even if a CBR change has been lost,
the old CBR is still a better estimate than zero. So remove the clearing
of CBR.
