commit a8383dfb2138742a1bb77b481ada047aededa2ba upstream.
The following commit:
3a4ac121c2ca ("x86/perf: Add hardware performance events support for Zhaoxin CPU.")
Got the old-style NMI watchdog logic wrong and broke it for basically every
Intel CPU where it was active. Which is only truly old CPUs, so few people noticed.
On CPUs with perf events support we turn off the old-style NMI watchdog, so it
was pretty pointless to add the logic for X86_VENDOR_ZHAOXIN to begin with ... :-/
Anyway, the fix is to restore the old logic and add a 'break'.
[ mingo: Wrote a new changelog. ]
Fixes: 3a4ac121c2ca ("x86/perf: Add hardware performance events support for Zhaoxin CPU.")

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.
