This patch fixes a problem with the initialization of the
struct perf_event active_entry field. It is defined inside
an anonymous union and was initialized in perf_event_alloc()
using INIT_LIST_HEAD(). However at that time, we do not know
whether the event is going to use active_entry or hlist_entry (SW).
Or at last, we don't want to make that determination there.
The problem is that hlist and list_head are not initialized
the same way. One is okay with NULL (from kzmalloc), the other
needs to pointers to point to self.
This patch resolves this problem by dropping the union.
This will avoid problems later on, if someone starts using
active_entry or hlist_entry without verifying that they
actually overlap. This also solves the initialization
problem.

Pull perf/core improvements and refactorings from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
New features:
. In perf timechart:
- Add backtrace support to CPU info
. Print pid along the name
. Add support for CPU topology
. Add new option --highlight'ing threads, be it by name or,
if a numeric value is provided, that run more than given duration.
From Stanislav Fomichev.
Refactorings:
. Rename some struct DSO binary_type related members and methods,
to clarify its purpose and need for differentiation from symtab_type,
i.e. one is about the files .text, CFI, etc, i.e. its binary contents,
and the other is about where the symbol table came from.
. Convert to new topic libraries, starting with an API one (sysfs, debugfs,
etc), renaming liblk in the process, from Borislav Petkov.
. Get rid of some more panic() like error handling in libtraceevent,
from Namhyung Kim.

It was called "data_type", but in this context "data" is way too vague,
it could mean the "data" ELF segment, or something else.
Since we have dso__read_binary_type_filename() and the values this field
receives are all DSO__BINARY_TYPE_<FOO> we may as well call it
"binary_type" for consistency sake.
It also seems more appropriate since it determines if we can do
operations like annotation and DWARF unwinding, that needs more than
just the symtab, requiring access to ELF text segments, CFI ELF
sections, etc.

Vince Weaver reports that, on all architectures apart from ARM,
PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD doesn't actually update the period until the next
event fires. This is counter-intuitive behaviour and is better dealt
with in the core code.
This patch ensures that the period is forcefully reset when dealing with
such a request in the core code. A subsequent patch removes the
equivalent hack from the ARM back-end.

For NUMA systems, initializing the blk-mq layer and using per node hctx.
We initialize submit queues to 1, while blk-mq nr_hw_queues is
initialized to the number of NUMA nodes.
This makes the null_init_hctx function overwrite memory outside of what
it allocated. In my case it lead to writing garbage into struct
request_queue's mq_map.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
1) Revert CHECKSUM_COMPLETE optimization in pskb_trim_rcsum(), I can't
figure out why it breaks things.
2) Fix comparison in netfilter ipset's hash_netnet4_data_equal(), it
was basically doing "x == x", from Dave Jones.
3) Freescale FEC driver was DMA mapping the wrong number of bytes, from
Sebastian Siewior.
4) Blackhole and prohibit routes in ipv6 were not doing the right thing
because their ->input and ->output methods were not being assigned
correctly. Now they behave properly like their ipv4 counterparts.
From Kamala R.
5) Several drivers advertise the NETIF_F_FRAGLIST capability, but
really do not support this feature and will send garbage packets if
fed fraglist SKBs. From Eric Dumazet.
6) Fix long standing user triggerable BUG_ON over loopback in RDS
protocol stack, from Venkat Venkatsubra.
7) Several not so common code paths can potentially try to invoke
packet scheduler actions that might be NULL without checking. Shore
things up by either 1) defining a method as mandatory and erroring
on registration if that method is NULL 2) defininig a method as
optional and the registration function hooks up a default
implementation when NULL is seen. From Jamal Hadi Salim.
8) Fix fragment detection in xen-natback driver, from Paul Durrant.
9) Kill dangling enter_memory_pressure method in cg_proto ops, from
Eric W Biederman.
10) SKBs that traverse namespaces should have their local_df cleared,
from Hannes Frederic Sowa.
11) IOCB file position is not being updated by macvtap_aio_read() and
tun_chr_aio_read(). From Zhi Yong Wu.
12) Don't free virtio_net netdev before releasing all of the NAPI
instances. From Andrey Vagin.
13) Procfs entry leak in xt_hashlimit, from Sergey Popovich.
14) IPv6 routes that are no cached routes should not count against the
garbage collection limits. We had this almost right, but were
missing handling addrconf generated routes properly. From Hannes
Frederic Sowa.
15) fib{4,6}_rule_suppress() have to consider potentially seeing NULL
route info when they are called, from Stefan Tomanek.
16) TUN and MACVTAP have had truncated packet signalling for some time,
fix from Jason Wang.
17) Fix use after frrr in __udp4_lib_rcv(), from Eric Dumazet.

The biggest single change is to stop using EFI time services on 32-bit

we already had ruled them out there as being too unreliable. Turns
out that affects 32-bit platforms, too.
