Pull perf tools fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
- Fail the 'perf test record' entry on error, fixing a regression where
just setup stuff like allocating memory and not the actual things
being tested failed.
- Fixup disabling of -Wdeprecated-declarations for the python scripting
engine, the previous attempt had a brown paper bag thinko.
- Fix branch stack sampling test to include sanity check for branch
filter on PowerPC.
- Update is_ignored_symbol function to match the kernel ignored list,
fixing running the 'perf test' entry that compares resolving symbols
from kallsyms to resolving from vmlinux.
- Augment the data source type with ARM's neoverse_spe list, the
previous code was limited in its search resolving the data source.
- Fix some clang 5 variable set but unused cases.
- Get a perf cgroup more portably in BPF as the
__builtin_preserve_enum_value builtin is not available in older
versions of clang. In those cases we can forgo BPF's CO-RE (Compile
Once, Run Everywhere).
- More Fixes for Intel's hybrid CPU model.

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.
