Merge tag 'perf-ebpf-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core

Pull basic perf/ebpf integration:

 "Please see the changeset comments, but this is the very basic integration of
  perf with libbpf that, given a .o file built for the 'bpf' target with clang,
  will get it validated and loaded into the kernel via the sys_bpf syscall, which
  can be seen using 'perf trace' to trace the whole thing looking just for the
  bpf and perf_event_open syscalls:

  More work is about to be reviewed, tested and merged that will allow the whole
  process of going from a .c file to an .o file via clang, etc to be done
  automagically. (Wang Nan)"
