6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Adrian Hunter adrian.hunter@intel.com
commit d92792a4b26e50b96ab734cbe203d8a4c932a7a9 upstream.
pt_event_snapshot_aux() uses pt->handle_nmi to determine if tracing needs to be stopped, however tracing can still be going because pt->handle_nmi is set to zero before tracing is stopped in pt_event_stop, whereas pt_event_snapshot_aux() requires that tracing must be stopped in order to copy a sample of trace from the buffer.
Instead call pt_config_stop() always, which anyway checks config for RTIT_CTL_TRACEEN and does nothing if it is already clear.
Note pt_event_snapshot_aux() can continue to use pt->handle_nmi to determine if the trace needs to be restarted afterwards.
