This patch fixes a systematic crash in rapl_scale() due to an invalid pointer.
The bug was introduced by commit: commit 89cbc76768c2fa4ed95545bf961f3a14ddfeed21 Author: Christoph Lameter <[email protected]> Date: Sun Aug 17 12:30:40 2014 -0500 x86: Replace __get_cpu_var uses The fix is simple. Just put the parenthesis where it needs to be, i.e., around rapl_pmu. To my surprise, the compiler was not complaining about passing an integer instead of a pointer.
