Subject[PATCH 3.16 095/136] perf/x86/amd/ibs: Fix reading of the IBS OpData register and thus precise RIP validity
3.16.80-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Kim Phillips <kim.phillips@amd.com>

commit 317b96bb14303c7998dbcd5bc606bd8038fdd4b4 upstream.

The loop that reads all the IBS MSRs into *buf stopped one MSR short of
reading the IbsOpData register, which contains the RipInvalid status bit.

Fix the offset_max assignment so the MSR gets read, so the RIP invalid
evaluation is based on what the IBS h/w output, instead of what was
left in memory.
