Stephane Eranian 995f088efe perf/core: Add support for PERF_SAMPLE_CODE_PAGE_SIZE
When studying code layout, it is useful to capture the page size of the
sampled code address.

Add a new sample type for code page size.
The new sample type requires collecting the ip. The code page size can
be calculated from the NMI-safe perf_get_page_size().

For large PEBS, it's very unlikely that the mapping is gone for the
earlier PEBS records. Enable the feature for the large PEBS. The worst
case is that page-size '0' is returned.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
