Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
* 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (121 commits)
perf symbols: Increase symbol KSYM_NAME_LEN size
perf hists browser: Refuse 'a' hotkey on non symbolic views
perf ui browser: Use libslang to read keys
perf tools: Fix tracing info recording
perf hists browser: Elide DSO column when it is set to just one DSO, ditto for threads
perf hists: Don't consider filtered entries when calculating column widths
perf hists: Don't decay total_period for filtered entries
perf hists browser: Honour symbol_conf.show_{nr_samples,total_period}
perf hists browser: Do not exit on tab key with single event
perf annotate browser: Don't change selection line when returning from callq
perf tools: handle endianness of feature bitmap
perf tools: Add prelink suggestion to dso update message
perf script: Fix unknown feature comment
perf hists browser: Apply the dso and thread filters when merging new batches
perf hists: Move the dso and thread filters from hist_browser
perf ui browser: Honour the xterm colors
perf top tui: Give color hints just on the percentage, like on --stdio
perf ui browser: Make the colors configurable and change the defaults
perf tui: Remove unneeded call to newtCls on startup
perf hists: Don't format the percentage on hist_entry__snprintf
...
Fix up conflicts in arch/x86/kernel/kprobes.c manually.
Ingo's tree did the insane "add volatile to const array", which just
doesn't make sense ("volatile const"?). But we could remove the const
*and* make the array volatile to make doubly sure that gcc doesn't
optimize it away..
Also fix up kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c non-data-conflicts manually: the
reader_lock has been turned into a raw lock by the core locking merge,
and there was a new user of it introduced in this perf core merge. Make
sure that new use also uses the raw accessor functions.
