Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

User visible changes:

  - Warn if given uprobe event accesses memory on older kernel (Masami Hiramatsu)

  - 'perf record' Documentation fixes (Namhyung Kim)

  - Report unsupported events properly in 'perf stat' (Suzuki K. Poulose)

Infrastructure changes:

  - Avoid FORK after COMM when synthesizing records for pre-existing threads (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  - Reference count struct thread (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  - Don't keep the session around in 'perf sched', thread refcounting removes that need (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  - Initialize cpu set in pthread_attr_setaffinity_np() feature test (Adrian Hunter)

  - Only include tsc file for x86 (David Ahern)

  - Compare JOBS to 0 after grep (David Ahern)

  - Improve feature detection messages (Ingo Molnar)

  - Revert "perf: Remove the extra validity check on nr_pages" (Kan Liang)

  - Remove bias offset to find probe point by address (Masami Hiramatsu)

  - Fix build error on ARCH=i386/x86_64/sparc64 (Namhyung Kim)
