Pull perf tools fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Fix the clang command line option probing and remove some options to
filter out, fixing the build with the latest clang versions
- Fix 'perf bench' futex and epoll benchmarks to deal with machines
with more than 1K CPUs
- Fix 'perf test tsc' error message when not supported
- Remap perf ring buffer if there is no space for event, fixing perf
usage in 32-bit ChromeOS
- Drop objdump stderr to avoid getting stuck waiting for stdout output
in 'perf annotate'
- Fix up garbled output by now showing unwind error messages when
augmenting frame in best effort mode
- Fix perf's libperf_print callback, use the va_args eprintf() variant
- Sync vhost and arm64 cputype headers with the kernel sources
- Fix 'perf report --mem-mode' with ARM SPE
- Add missing external commands ('iiostat', etc) to 'perf --list-cmds'

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
