Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Kernel improvements:
- watchdog driver improvements by Li Zefan
- Power7 CPI stack events related improvements by Sukadev Bhattiprolu
- event multiplexing via hrtimers and other improvements by Stephane
Eranian
- kernel stack use optimization by Andrew Hunter
- AMD IOMMU uncore PMU support by Suravee Suthikulpanit
- NMI handling rate-limits by Dave Hansen
- various hw_breakpoint fixes by Oleg Nesterov

Ahern.
- Makefile reorganization, prep work for Kconfig patches, from Jiri
Olsa.
- Add automated make test suite, from Jiri Olsa.
- Add --percent-limit option to 'top' and 'report', from Namhyung
Kim.
