Subject[014/205] fix mis-applied upstream commit ac9721f3f54b27a16c7e1afb2481e7ee95a70318
2.6.34-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Jan Beulich <JBeulich@novell.com>

For some reason one of the changes to sys_perf_event_open() got
mis-applied, thus breaking (at least) error handling paths (pointed
out by means of a compiler warning).
