    Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
     "A set of perf related fixes:
    
       - fix a CR4.PCE propagation issue caused by usage of mm instead of
         active_mm and therefore propagated the wrong value.
    
       - perf core fixes, which plug a use-after-free issue and make the
         event inheritance on fork more robust.
    
       - a tooling fix for symbol handling"
