Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

User visible changes:

  - Validate syscall list passed via -e argument to 'perf trace'. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

  - Introduce 'perf stat --per-thread'. (Jiri Olsa)

  - Check access permission for --kallsyms and --vmlinux. (Li Zhang)

Infrastructure changes:

  - Move stuff out of 'perf stat' and into the lib for further use. (Jiri Olsa)
