Merge tag 'perf_urgent_for_v5.17_rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull perf fixes from Borislav Petkov:

 - Intel/PT: filters could crash the kernel

 - Intel: default disable the PMU for SMM, some new-ish EFI firmware has
   started using CPL3 and the PMU CPL filters don't discriminate against
   SMM, meaning that CPL3 (userspace only) events now also count EFI/SMM
   cycles.

 - Fixup for perf_event_attr::sig_data

* tag 'perf_urgent_for_v5.17_rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
