Mgerge remote-tracking branch 'torvalds/master' into perf/core

To sync headers, for instance, in this case tools/perf was ahead of
upstream till Linus merged tip/perf/core to get the
PERF_RECORD_TEXT_POKE changes:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h' differs from latest version at 'include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h'
  diff -u tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h

+ * _begin() a +1 and _end() a -1 and computes a sum over the instructions.
+ * When the value is greater than 0, we consider instrumentation allowed.
+ *

+ *
+ * noinstr void foo()

+ *	instrumentation_end();
+ * }
+ *
+ * If instrumentation_end() would be an empty label, like all the other
+ * annotations, the inner _end(), which is at the end of a conditional block,
+ * would land on the instruction after the block.
+ *
+ * If we then consider the sum of the !cond path, we'll see that the call to
+ * bar() is with a 0-value, even though, we meant it to happen with a positive
+ * value.
+ *
+ * To avoid this, have _end() be a NOP instruction, this ensures it will be
+ * part of the condition block and does not escape.
