Very good, it worked!:

Thank you!

Also, after a quick glance at the patch I noticed this update:
-/* pmc8  */ { PFM_REG_CONFIG  , 0, 0xffffffff3fffffffUL,
0xffffffff9fffffffUL, NULL, pfm_mck_pmc_check, {0UL,0UL, 0UL, 0UL},
{0UL,0UL, 0UL, 0UL}},
-/* pmc9  */ { PFM_REG_CONFIG  , 0, 0xffffffff3ffffffcUL,
0xffffffff9fffffffUL, NULL, pfm_mck_pmc_check, {0UL,0UL, 0UL, 0UL},
{0UL,0UL, 0UL, 0UL}},
+/* pmc8  */ { PFM_REG_CONFIG  , 0, 0xffffffff3fffffffUL,
0xffffffff3fffffffUL, NULL, pfm_mck_pmc_check, {0UL,0UL, 0UL, 0UL},
{0UL,0UL, 0UL, 0UL}},
+/* pmc9  */ { PFM_REG_CONFIG  , 0, 0xffffffff3ffffffcUL,
0xffffffff3fffffffUL, NULL, pfm_mck_pmc_check, {0UL,0UL, 0UL, 0UL},
{0UL,0UL, 0UL, 0UL}},

Could you describe shortly what this is suppose to fix? Recently I had
some troubles with some PMU counters on Itanium2 (hard to trigger) and I
wonder if this could be solved by that patch...

Eric
