Stephane Eranian d1e7e602cd perf/x86/intel: Move regs->flags EXACT bit init
This patch removes a redundant store on regs->flags introduced
by commit:

  71eb9ee959 ("perf/x86/intel: Fix linear IP of PEBS real_ip on Haswell and later CPUs")

We were clearing the PERF_EFLAGS_EXACT but it was overwritten by
regs->flags = pebs->flags later on.

The PERF_EFLAGS_EXACT is a software flag using bit 3 of regs->flags.
X86 marks this bit as Reserved. To make sure this bit is zero before
we do any IP processing, we clear it explicitly.

Patch also removes the following assignment:

	regs->flags = pebs->flags | (regs->flags & PERF_EFLAGS_VM);

Because there is no regs->flags to preserve anymore because
set_linear_ip() is not called until later.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
