4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Hendrik Brueckner brueckner@linux.ibm.com
commit 4bbaf2584b86b0772413edeac22ff448f36351b1 upstream.
Correct a trinity finding for the perf_event_open() system call with a perf event attribute structure that uses a frequency but has the sampling frequency set to zero. This causes a FP divide exception during the sample rate initialization for the hardware sampling facility.
