Merge branch 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf fixes from Ingo Molnar: "The biggest chunk of the changes are two regression fixes: a HT workaround fix and an event-group scheduling fix. It's been verified with 5 days of fuzzer testing. Other fixes: - eBPF fix - a BIOS breakage detection fix - PMU driver fixes" * 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: perf/x86/intel/pt: Fix a refactoring bug perf/x86: Tweak broken BIOS rules during check_hw_exists() perf/x86/intel/pt: Untangle pt_buffer_reset_markers() perf: Disallow sparse AUX allocations for non-SG PMUs in overwrite mode perf/x86: Improve HT workaround GP counter constraint perf/x86: Fix event/group validation perf: Fix race in BPF program unregister
