[ Upstream commit 6d6be5eb45b423a37d746d3ee0fd0c78f76ead9f ]
Counts were switched from the scaled saved value form to the
aggregated count to avoid double accounting. When this happened the
removing of scaling for a count should have been removed, however, it
wasn't and this wasn't observed as it normally doesn't matter because
a counter's scale is 1. A problem was observed with RAPL events that
are scaled.
Fixes: 37cc8ad77cf8 ("perf metric: Directly use counts rather than saved_value")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
