Hi Ingo,

did you fix all of these warnings for !PERF_COUNTERS?

include/linux/perf_counter.h: In function 'perf_output_begin':
include/linux/perf_counter.h:854: warning: no return statement in function returning non-void
include/linux/perf_counter.h: At top level:
include/linux/perf_counter.h:863: warning: 'struct perf_sample_data' declared inside parameter list
include/linux/perf_counter.h:863: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want
include/linux/perf_counter.h:868: warning: 'struct perf_sample_data' declared inside parameter list
