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.
