Subject: perf probe: Fix to copy the type for raw parameters
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=58432e1f3625ef22b347ec8f9487e1852aa9ad67;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

perf probe: Fix to copy the type for raw parameters

Copy type field if it is for raw parameters.
Without this fix, perf probe drops the type if user passes it
for raw parameters (e.g. %ax:u32 will be converted to %ax).
