Merge tag 'perf-tools-fixes-for-v5.9-2020-09-03' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux

Pull more perf tools fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

 - Use uintptr_t when casting numbers to pointers

 - Keep output expected by 3rd parties: Turn off summary for interval
   mode by default.

 - BPF is in kernel space, make sure do_validate_kcore_modules() knows
   about that.

 - Explicitly call out event modifiers in the documentation.

 - Fix jevents() allocation of space for regular expressions.

 - Address libtraceevent build warnings on 32-bit arches.

 - Fix checking of functions returns using ERR_PTR() in 'perf bench'.
