Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo-4.14-20170816' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull perf core improvements and fixes:

New features:

- Support exporting Intel PT data to sqlite3 with python perf scripts,
  this is in addition to the postgresql support that was already there (Adrian Hunter)

Infrastructure changes:

- Handle perf tool builds with less features in perf shell tests, such
  as those with NO_LIBDWARF=1 or even without 'perf probe' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Replace '|&' with '2>&1 |' to work with more shells in the just
  introduced perf test shell harness (Kim Phillips)

Architecture related fixes:

- Fix endianness problem when loading parameters in the BPF prologue
  generated by perf, noticed using 'perf test BPF' in s390x systems (Wang Nan, Thomas Richter)
