commit 6fc2e83077 upstream.
This patches fixes the LBR kernel crashes on Intel Atom.
The kernel was assuming that if the CPU supports 64-bit format
LBR, then it has an LBR_SELECT MSR. Atom uses 64-bit LBR format
but does not have LBR_SELECT. That was causing NULL pointer
dereferences in a couple of places.
