HacKerMaiL (hkml) [1] is a simple tool for mailing lists-based development workflows such as that for most Linux kernel subsystems.

The checktransupdate.py script helps track the translation status of the documentation in different locales, e.g., zh_CN and verify if these documenation is up-to-date. More specially, it uses `git log` commit to find the latest english commit from the translation commit (order by author date) and the latest english commits from HEAD. If differences occur, report the file and commits that need to be updated. Signed-off-by:

This reverts commit 617824a7. This made a simple 'perf record -e cycles:pp make -j199' stop working on the Ampere ARM64 system Linus uses to test ARM64 kernels, as discussed at length in the threads in the Link tags below. The fix provided by Ian wasn't acceptable and work to fix this will take time we don't have at this point, so lets revert this and work on it on the next devel cycle. Reported-by:
