bpf_target_prog seems long and clunky, rename it to prog_ifindex.
We don't want to call this field just ifindex, because maps
may need a similar field in the future and bpf_attr members for
programs and maps are unnamed.

Pull libnvdimm and dax updates from Dan Williams:
 "Save for a few late fixes, all of these commits have shipped in -next
  releases since before the merge window opened, and 0day has given a
  build success notification.

  The ext4 touches came from Jan, and the xfs touches have Darrick's
  reviewed-by. An xfstest for the MAP_SYNC feature has been through
  a few round of reviews and is on track to be merged.

   - Introduce MAP_SYNC and MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, a mechanism to enable
     'userspace flush' of persistent memory updates via filesystem-dax
     mappings. It arranges for any filesystem metadata updates that may
     be required to satisfy a write fault to also be flushed ("on disk")
     before the kernel returns to userspace from the fault handler.
     Effectively every write-fault that dirties metadata completes an
     fsync() before returning from the fault handler. The new
     MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE mapping type guarantees that the MAP_SYNC flag
     is validated as supported by the filesystem's -&gt;mmap() file
     operation.

   - Add support for the standard ACPI 6.2 label access methods that
     replace the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL (vendor specific) label methods.
     This enables interoperability with environments that only implement
     the standardized methods.

   - Add support for the ACPI 6.2 NVDIMM media error injection methods.

   - Add support for the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL v1.6 DIMM commands for
     latch last shutdown status, firmware update, SMART error injection,
     and SMART alarm threshold control.

   - Cleanup physical address information disclosures to be root-only.

   - Fix revalidation of the DIMM "locked label area" status to support
     dynamic unlock of the label area.

   - Expand unit test infrastructure to mock the ACPI 6.2 Translate SPA
     (system-physical-address) command and error injection commands.

  Acknowledgements that came after the commits were pushed to -next:

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle were:

  Kernel:

   - kprobes updates: use better W^X patterns for code modifications,
     improve optprobes, remove jprobes. (Masami Hiramatsu, Kees Cook)

   - core fixes: event timekeeping (enabled/running times statistics)
     fixes, perf_event_read() locking fixes and cleanups, etc. (Peter
     Zijlstra)

   - Extend x86 Intel free-running PEBS support and support x86
     user-register sampling in perf record and perf script. (Andi Kleen)

  Tooling:

   - Completely rework the way inline frames are handled. Instead of
     querying for the inline nodes on-demand in the individual tools, we
     now create proper callchain nodes for inlined frames. (Milian
     Wolff)

   - 'perf trace' updates (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - Implement a way to print formatted output to per-event files in
     'perf script' to facilitate generate flamegraphs, elliminating the
     need to write scripts to do that separation (yuzhoujian, Arnaldo
     Carvalho de Melo)

   - Update vendor events JSON metrics for Intel's Broadwell, Broadwell
     Server, Haswell, Haswell Server, IvyBridge, IvyTown, JakeTown,
     Sandy Bridge, Skylake, SkyLake Server - and Goldmont Plus V1 (Andi
     Kleen, Kan Liang)

   - Multithread the synthesizing of PERF_RECORD_ events for
     pre-existing threads in 'perf top', speeding up that phase, greatly
     improving the user experience in systems such as Intel's Knights
     Mill (Kan Liang)

   - Introduce the concept of weak groups in 'perf stat': try to set up
     a group, but if it's not schedulable fallback to not using a group.
     That gives us the best of both worlds: groups if they work, but
     still a usable fallback if they don't. E.g: (Andi Kleen)

   - perf sched timehist enhancements (David Ahern)

   - ... various other enhancements, updates, cleanups and fixes"

  kprobes: Don't spam the build log with deprecation warnings
  arm/kprobes: Remove jprobe test case

Pull core locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle are:

   - Another attempt at enabling cross-release lockdep dependency
     tracking (automatically part of CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y), this time
     with better performance and fewer false positives. (Byungchul Park)

   - Introduce lockdep_assert_irqs_enabled()/disabled() and convert
     open-coded equivalents to lockdep variants. (Frederic Weisbecker)

   - Add down_read_killable() and use it in the VFS's iterate_dir()
     method. (Kirill Tkhai)

   - Convert remaining uses of ACCESS_ONCE() to
     READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE(). Most of the conversion was Coccinelle
     driven. (Mark Rutland, Paul E. McKenney)

   - Get rid of lockless_dereference(), by strengthening Alpha atomics,
     strengthening READ_ONCE() with smp_read_barrier_depends() and thus
     being able to convert users of lockless_dereference() to
     READ_ONCE(). (Will Deacon)

   - Various micro-optimizations:

        - better PV qspinlocks (Waiman Long),
        - better x86 barriers (Michael S. Tsirkin)
        - better x86 refcounts (Kees Cook)

   - ... plus other fixes and enhancements. (Borislav Petkov, Juergen
     Gross, Miguel Bernal Marin)"
