Hm, the perf_event_p4.c code is indeed confused.

I think the bug is real but probably benign in effect: we allow narrower 
values into the MSR register than probably intended. Only a couple of low 
bits are reserved AFAICS.

Here's an (untested!) patch that tries to untangle it all: it just moves 
to clean 64-bit types everywhere - these MSRs are 64-bit wide regardless 
of whether we run on 32-bit or not.

Would be nice if someone with a working P4 could test it - Cyrill? [It 
should also be double checked whether the high words are really not 
reserved and can be written to ...]

Thanks,

	Ingo

Linus, while extending integer type extension checks in the sparse static 
code checker, found fragile patterns of mixed signed/unsigned 
64-bit/32-bit integer use in perf_events_p4.c.

The relevant hardware register ABI is 64 bit wide on 32-bit kernels as 
well, so clean it all up a bit, remove unnecessary casts, and make sure we 
use 64-bit unsigned integers in these places.
