2.6.33-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Stephane Eranian <[email protected]> commit 4b24a88b35e15e04bd8f2c5dda65b5dc8ebca05f upstream. If reserve_pmc_hardware() succeeds but reserve_ds_buffers() fails, then we need to release_pmc_hardware. It won't be done by the destroy() callback because we return before setting it in case of error.
