Thus we have to use the MMCR0_FCHV (freeze counters in hypervisor mode) bit rather than the MMCR0_FCS (freeze counters in supervisor mode) bit. This checks the MSR.HV bit at startup, and if it is set, we set the freeze_counters_kernel variable to MMCR0_FCHV (it was initialized to MMCR0_FCS). We then use that whenever we need to exclude kernel events. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras Û=<„™
