I've started to prefer applying patches for cases like these, single-patch pull requests are actually more work than doing that. So: applied on top of next/drivers, where the CCN driver was merged as well. Thanks! -Olof

The bitfield allocation function returns error condition as a negative value, but in two cases its result was assigned to an unsigned member of the hw_perf_event structure, thus the error would not be ever detected. Fixed by using an intermediate, signed variable.
