Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
User visible changes:
- Use PERF_RECORD_SWITCH when available in intel-pt, instead of
"sched:sched_switch" events, enabling an unprivileged user to trace
multi-threaded or multi-process workloads. (Adrian Hunter)
- Always use non inlined file name for 'srcfile' sort key. (Andi Kleen)
- Quieten failed to read counter message, helps in systems without
backend-stalled-cycles. (Andi Kleen)
Infrastructure changes:
- Add a 'perf test' entry for decoding of new x86 instructions. (Adrian Hunter)
- Add new instructions (sha, clflushopt, clwb, pcommit, rdpkru, wrpkru, xsavec,
xsaves, xrstors) to the x86 instruction decoder. (Adrian Hunter)
- Add a build test to warn when source code drifts happen for the
instruction decoder files in the kernel and in tools/perf. (Adrian Hunter)
- Copy linux/filter.h to tools/include. (He Kuang)
- Support function __get_dynamic_array_len in libtraceevent. (He Kuanguuu)
- Tracing path finding/mounting/error reporting refactorings. (Jiri Olsa)
- Store CPU socket and core IDs in perf.data. (Kan Liang)
- Reorganize add/del probe insertion routines in 'perf probe'. (Namhyung Kim, Wang Nan)
