      Pull x86 CPU features from Ingo Molnar:
 "Various CPU feature support related changes: in particular the
  /proc/cpuinfo model name sanitization change should be monitored, it
  has a chance to break stuff.  (but really shouldn't and there are no
  regression reports)"

      Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Kernel side changes mostly consist of work on x86 PMU drivers:

   - x86 Intel PT (hardware CPU tracer) improvements (Alexander
     Shishkin)

   - x86 Intel CQM (cache quality monitoring) improvements (Thomas
     Gleixner)

   - x86 Intel PEBSv3 support (Peter Zijlstra)

   - x86 Intel PEBS interrupt batching support for lower overhead
     sampling (Zheng Yan, Kan Liang)

   - x86 PMU scheduler fixes and improvements (Peter Zijlstra)

  There's too many tooling improvements to list them all - here are a
  few select highlights:

  'perf bench':

      - Introduce new 'perf bench futex' benchmark: 'wake-parallel', to
        measure parallel waker threads generating contention for kernel
        locks (hb->lock). (Davidlohr Bueso)

  'perf top', 'perf report':

      - Allow disabling/enabling events dynamicaly in 'perf top':
        a 'perf top' session can instantly become a 'perf report'
        one, i.e. going from dynamic analysis to a static one,
        returning to a dynamic one is possible, to toogle the
        modes, just press 'f' to 'freeze/unfreeze' the sampling. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

      - Make Ctrl-C stop processing on TUI, allowing interrupting the load of big
        perf.data files (Namhyung Kim)

  'perf probe': (Masami Hiramatsu)

      - Support glob wildcards for function name
      - Support $params special probe argument: Collect all function arguments
      - Make --line checks validate C-style function name.
      - Add --no-inlines option to avoid searching inline functions
      - Greatly speed up 'perf probe --list' by caching debuginfo.
      - Improve --filter support for 'perf probe', allowing using its arguments
        on other commands, as --add, --del, etc.

  'perf sched':

      - Add option in 'perf sched' to merge like comms to lat output (Josef Bacik)

  Plus tons of infrastructure work - in particular preparation for
  upcoming threaded perf report support, but also lots of other work -
  and fixes and other improvements.  See (much) more details in the
  shortlog and in the git log"

* 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (305 commits)

  perf top: Allow disabling/enabling events dynamicly
  perf evlist: Add toggle_enable() method
  perf trace: Fix race condition at the end of started workloads
  perf probe: Speed up perf probe --list by caching debuginfo

  perf tools: Fix a problem when opening old perf.data with different byte order
  perf tools: Ignore .config-detected in .gitignore
  perf probe: Fix to return error if no probe is added

      Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes are:

   - 'qspinlock' support, enabled on x86: queued spinlocks - these are
     now the spinlock variant used by x86 as they outperform ticket
     spinlocks in every category.  (Waiman Long)

   - 'pvqspinlock' support on x86: paravirtualized variant of queued
     spinlocks.  (Waiman Long, Peter Zijlstra)

   - 'qrwlock' support, enabled on x86: queued rwlocks.  Similar to
     queued spinlocks, they are now the variant used by x86:

       CONFIG_ARCH_USE_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS=y
       CONFIG_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS=y
       CONFIG_ARCH_USE_QUEUED_RWLOCKS=y
       CONFIG_QUEUED_RWLOCKS=y

   - various lockdep fixlets

   - various locking primitives cleanups, further WRITE_ONCE()
     propagation"

      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Continued initialization/Kconfig updates: hide most Kconfig options
   from unsuspecting users.

   There's now a single high level configuration option:

        *
        * RCU Subsystem
        *
        Make expert-level adjustments to RCU configuration (RCU_EXPERT) [N/y/?] (NEW)

   Which if answered in the negative, leaves us with a single
   interactive configuration option:

        Offload RCU callback processing from boot-selected CPUs (RCU_NOCB_CPU) [N/y/?] (NEW)

   All the rest of the RCU options are configured automatically.  Later
   on we'll remove this single leftover configuration option as well.

 - Remove all uses of RCU-protected array indexes: replace the
   rcu_[access|dereference]_index_check() APIs with READ_ONCE() and
   rcu_lockdep_assert()

 - RCU CPU-hotplug cleanups

 - Updates to Tiny RCU: a race fix and further code shrinkage.

 - RCU torture-testing updates: fixes, speedups, cleanups and
   documentation updates.

 - Miscellaneous fixes

 - Documentation updates

      Pull vfs updates from Al Viro:
 "In this pile: pathname resolution rewrite.

   - recursion in link_path_walk() is gone.

   - nesting limits on symlinks are gone (the only limit remaining is
     that the total amount of symlinks is no more than 40, no matter how
     nested).

   - "fast" (inline) symlinks are handled without leaving rcuwalk mode.

   - stack footprint (independent of the nesting) is below kilobyte now,
     about on par with what it used to be with one level of nested
     symlinks and ~2.8 times lower than it used to be in the worst case.

   - struct nameidata is entirely private to fs/namei.c now (not even
     opaque pointers are being passed around).

   - ->follow_link() and ->put_link() calling conventions had been
     changed; all in-tree filesystems converted, out-of-tree should be
     able to follow reasonably easily.

     For out-of-tree conversions, see Documentation/filesystems/porting
     for details (and in-tree filesystems for examples of conversion).

  That has sat in -next since mid-May, seems to survive all testing
  without regressions and merges clean with v4.1"
