The page_cnt parameter is used to specify the number of memory pages allocated for each per-CPU buffer, it must be non-zero and a power of 2. Currently, the __perf_buffer__new() function attempts to validate that the page_cnt is a power of 2 but forgets checking for the case where page_cnt is zero, we can fix it by replacing 'page_cnt & (page_cnt - 1)' with 'page_cnt == 0 || (page_cnt & (page_cnt - 1))'. If so, we also don't need to add a check in perf_buffer__new_v0_6_0() to make sure that page_cnt is non-zero and the check for zero in perf_buffer__new_raw_v0_6_0() can also be removed. The code will be cleaner and more readable.

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.
