[PATCH] perf/core: remove invalid warning from list_update_cgroup_event

[PATCH] perf/core: remove invalid warning from list_update_cgroup_event

[David Carrillo-Cisneros]

The warning introduced in commit:

979bfef8607c ("perf/core: Do not set cpuctx->cgrp for unscheduled cgroups")

assumed that a cgroup switch always precedes list_del_event. This is not
the case. Remove warning.

Make sure that cpuctx->cgrp is NULL until a cgroup event is sched in or
ctx->nr_cgroups == 0.

That commit doesn't exist.

You instead mean this one, right?

Ups, got it from the wrong tree. Yes, that's the one I meant.
