Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
User visible changes:
- Fix max attr.precise_ip probing to make perf use the best cycles:p
available in the processor for non root users (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Fix processing of MMAP events for 32-bit binaries on 64-bit systems
when unwind support is not fully integrated, fixing DSO and symbol
resolution (Jiri Olsa)

We currently fail the MMAP event processing if we don't have the MMAP
event's specific arch unwind support compiled in.
That's wrong and can lead to unresolved mmaps in report output for 32bit
binaries on 64bit server, like in this example on x86_64 server:
$ cat ex.c
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
while (1) {}
}
$ gcc -o ex -m32 ex.c
$ perf record ./ex
^C[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.371 MB perf.data (9322 samples) ]
Before:
$ perf report --stdio
SNIP
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ ....... ................ ......................
#
100.00% ex [unknown] [.] 0x00000000080483de

0.00% ex [unknown] [.] 0x00000000f76e4c11
0.00% ex [unknown] [.] 0x00000000f76daa30
After:
$ perf report --stdio
SNIP
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ ....... ............. ...............

100.00% ex ex [.] main

0.00% ex ld-2.24.so [.] do_lookup_x
0.00% ex ld-2.24.so [.] _start
The fix is not to fail, just warn if there's not unwind support compiled
in.

We should set attr.exclude_kernel when probing for attr.precise_ip
level, otherwise !CAP_SYS_ADMIN users will not default to skidless
samples in capable hardware.
The increase in the paranoid level in commit 0161028b7c ("perf/core:
Change the default paranoia level to 2") broke this, fix it by excluding
kernel samples when probing.
Before:
$ perf record usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.018 MB perf.data (6 samples) ]
$ perf evlist -v

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

To further clarify: we always set .exclude_kernel when non !CAP_SYS_ADMIN
users profile, its just on the attr.precise_ip probing that we weren't doing
so, fix it.

Pull SMP hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update is primarily a cleanup of the CPU hotplug locking code.
The hotplug locking mechanism is an open coded RWSEM, which allows
recursive locking. The main problem with that is the recursive nature
as it evades the full lockdep coverage and hides potential deadlocks.
The rework replaces the open coded RWSEM with a percpu RWSEM and
establishes full lockdep coverage that way.
The bulk of the changes fix up recursive locking issues and address
the now fully reported potential deadlocks all over the place. Some of
these deadlocks have been observed in the RT tree, but on mainline the
probability was low enough to hide them away."

Pull x86 timers updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update contains:
- The solution for the TSC deadline timer borkage, which is caused by
a hardware problem in the TSC_ADJUST/TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER logic.
The problem is documented now and fixed with a microcode update, so
we can remove the workaround and just check for the microcode version.
If the microcode is not up to date, then the TSC deadline timer is
disabled. If the borkage is fixed by the proper microcode version,
then the deadline timer can be used. In both cases the restrictions
to the range of the TSC_ADJUST value, which were added as
workarounds, are removed.

Pull x86 PCI updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update provides the seperation of x86 PCI accessors from the
global PCI lock in the generic PCI config space accessors.
The reasons for this are:
- x86 has it's own PCI config lock for various reasons, so the
accessors have to lock two locks nested.
- The ECAM (mmconfig) access to the extended configuration space does
not require locking. The existing generic locking causes a massive
lock contention when accessing the extended config space of the
Uncore facility for performance monitoring.
The commit which switched the access to the primary config space over
to ECAM mode has been removed from the branch, so the primary config
space is still accessed with type1 accessors properly serialized by
the x86 internal locking.
Bjorn agreed on merging this through the x86 tree"

Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The irq department delivers:
- Expand the generic infrastructure handling the irq migration on CPU
hotplug and convert X86 over to it. (Thomas Gleixner)
Aside of consolidating code this is a preparatory change for:
- Finalizing the affinity management for multi-queue devices. The
main change here is to shut down interrupts which are affine to a
outgoing CPU and reenabling them when the CPU comes online again.
That avoids moving interrupts pointlessly around and breaking and
reestablishing affinities for no value. (Christoph Hellwig)
Note: This contains also the BLOCK-MQ and NVME changes which depend
on the rework of the irq core infrastructure. Jens acked them and
agreed that they should go with the irq changes.
