Caused by checking the 'callchain' flag when it should have been the

Pull perf/core improvements from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
User visible changes:
- Wire the callchain unwinding "max-stack" now to 'perf script --max-stack',
allowing to limit the depth of callchains, possibly reducing processing
time (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Ditto for 'perf trace --max-stack' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Introduce a --min-stack filter for 'perf trace', to show syscalls that
had a userspace callchain leading to it at least min-stack deep (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Make 'perf trace' work with multiple threads and the --duration filter,
i.e. do not print the start of an interrupted syscall followed by ...
to print interrupts from other threads, as we need to wait the sys_exit
syscall tracepoint to calculate the duration, duh. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
System wide --duration now works as expected:
[root@jouet ~]# trace --duration 100
152.393 (145.147 ms): Timer/24358 futex(uaddr: 0x7f5ed98e56cc, op: WAIT_BITSET|PRIV|CLKRT, val: 7055125, utime: 0x7f5ecdbfec30, val3: 4294967295) = -1 ETIMEDOUT Connection timed out
152.438 (145.040 ms): firefox/24321 poll(ufds: 0x7f5ec388b460, nfds: 6, timeout_msecs: 4294967295) = 1
358.580 (158.279 ms): Xorg/2025 select(n: 512, inp: 0x83a8e0, tvp: 0x7ffdcbb63610) = 0 Timeout
358.687 (148.285 ms): gnome-terminal/2711 poll(ufds: 0x55b7e6811ad0, nfds: 15, timeout_msecs: 249) = 1

- Now 'perf trace's --max-stack and --min-stack will automatically set
"--call-graph dwarf", if --call-graph is not present on the command line:
[root@jouet ~]# perf trace -e nanosleep --max-stack 3 usleep 1

Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
"A few fixes for the current series. This contains:
- Two fixes for NVMe:
One fixes a reset race that can be triggered by repeated
insert/removal of the module.
The other fixes an issue on some platforms, where we get probe
timeouts since legacy interrupts isn't working. This used not to
be a problem since we had the worker thread poll for completions,
but since that was killed off, it means those poor souls can't
successfully probe their NVMe device. Use a proper IRQ check and
probe (msi-x -> msi ->legacy), like most other drivers to work
around this. Both from Keith.
- A loop corruption issue with offset in iters, from Ming Lei.
- A fix for not having the partition stat per cpu ref count
initialized before sending out the KOBJ_ADD, which could cause user
space to access the counter prior to initialization. Also from
Ming Lei.
- A fix for using the wrong congestion state, from Kaixu Xia"

In the v4.4 cycle, we relaxed the requirement for assigning

(a) using nand_scan() directly
and
(b) built as modules
We haven't seen explicit complaints about this (most use cases don't
fit one or both of the above), but we should definitely not be
BUG()'ing here"
