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

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

From: Jan-Simon Möller <[email protected]>

commit 1b0dac2ac6debdbf1541e15f2cede03613cf4465 upstream.

The variable name events_group is already in used and led to a
compilation error when using clang to build the Linux Kernel .
The fix is just to rename the var. No functional change. Please
apply.

Fix suggested in discussion by PaX Team <[email protected]>
