Merge branch 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A couple of fixes for perf and kprobes: - Add he missing exclude_kernel attribute for the precise_ip level so !CAP_SYS_ADMIN users get the proper results. - Warn instead of failing completely when perf has no unwind support for a particular architectiure built in. - Ensure that jprobes are at function entry and not at some random place" * 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: kprobes: Ensure that jprobe probepoints are at function entry kprobes: Simplify register_jprobes() kprobes: Rename [arch_]function_offset_within_entry() to [arch_]kprobe_on_func_entry() perf unwind: Do not fail due to missing unwind support perf evsel: Set attr.exclude_kernel when probing max attr.precise_ip
