Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of perf fixes:
kernel:
- Unbreak the tracking of auxiliary buffer allocations which got
imbalanced causing recource limit failures.
- Fix the fallout of splitting of ToPA entries which missed to shift
the base entry PA correctly.
- Use the correct context to lookup the AUX event when unmapping the
associated AUX buffer so the event can be stopped and the buffer
reference dropped.
tools:
- Fix buildiid-cache mode setting in copyfile_mode_ns() when copying
/proc/kcore
- Fix freeing id arrays in the event list so the correct event is
closed.
- Sync sched.h anc kvm.h headers with the kernel sources.
- Link jvmti against tools/lib/ctype.o to have weak strlcpy().
- Fix multiple memory and file descriptor leaks, found by coverity in
perf annotate.
- Fix leaks in error handling paths in 'perf c2c', 'perf kmem', found
by a static analysis tool"

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.
