"Misunderstanding" is a very kind term for what I did there. Stephane,
were you actually running in to the new cpu limit, or were you just
trying to update kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate?

BTW, I also did the same thing in 2ab00456:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=2ab00456ea8a0d79acb1390659b98416111880b2

I'll have a patch out shortly for that one, but its damage would be
limited to a bogus printk.
