The perf_event_attr.task bit is to track task (fork and exit) events but
it missed to be set by perf_evsel__config(). While it was not a problem
in practice since setting other bits (comm/mmap) ended up being in same
result, it'd be good to set it explicitly anyway.
The attr->task is to track task related events (fork/exit) only but
other meta events like comm and mmap[2] also needs the task events. So
setting attr->comm and/or attr->mmap causes the kernel emits the task
events anyway. So the attr->task is only meaningful when other bits are
off but I'd like to set it for completeness.

After perf record finishes, it prints file size and number of samples in
the file but this info is wrong since it assumes typical sample size of
24 bytes and divides file size by the value.
However as we post-process recorded samples for build-id, it can show
correct number like below. If build-id post-processing is not requested
just omit the wrong number of samples.
$ perf record noploop 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]

The fix from 9fc81d8742 ("perf: Fix events installation during
moving group") was incomplete in that it failed to recognise that
creating a group with events for different CPUs is semantically
broken -- they cannot be co-scheduled.
Furthermore, it leads to real breakage where, when we create an event
for CPU Y and then migrate it to form a group on CPU X, the code gets
confused where the counter is programmed -- triggered in practice
as well by me via the perf fuzzer.
Fix this by tightening the rules for creating groups. Only allow
grouping of counters that can be co-scheduled in the same context.
This means for the same task and/or the same cpu.

Merge misc fixes from Andrew Morton:
"Six fixes"
* emailed patches from Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>:
drivers/rtc/rtc-s5m.c: terminate s5m_rtc_id array with empty element
printk: add dummy routine for when CONFIG_PRINTK=n
mm/vmscan: fix highidx argument type

mm: page_alloc: embed OOM killing naturally into allocation slowpath
Pull cgroup fix from Tejun Heo:
"The lifetime rules of cgroup hierarchies always have been somewhat
counter-intuitive and cgroup core tried to enforce that hierarchies
w/o userland-visible usages must die in finite amount of time so that
the controllers can be reused for other hierarchies; unfortunately,
this can't be implemented reasonably for the memory controller - the
kmemcg part doesn't have any way to forcefully drain the existing
usages, leading to an interruptible hang if a following mount attempts
to use the controller in any way.
So, it seems like we're stuck with "hierarchies live on till they die
whenever that may be" at least for now. This pretty much confines
attaching controllers to hierarchies to before the hierarchies are
actively used by making dynamic configurations post active usages
unreliable. This has never been reliable and should be fine in
practice given how cgroups are used.
After the patch, hierarchies aren't killed if it isn't already
drained. A following mount attempt of the same mount options will
reuse the existing hierarchy. Mount attempts with differing options
will fail w/ -EBUSY"

Commit e61734c55c ("cgroup: remove cgroup->name") added two extra
newlines to memcg oom kill log messages. This makes dmesg hard to read
and parse. The issue affects 3.15+.
Example:
Task in /t <<< extra #1
killed as a result of limit of /t
<<< extra #2
memory: usage 102400kB, limit 102400kB, failcnt 274712
Remove the extra newlines from memcg oom kill messages, so the messages
look like:
Task in /t killed as a result of limit of /t
memory: usage 102400kB, limit 102400kB, failcnt 240649
