Linus Torvalds a7092c8204 Kernel side changes:
- Add AMD Fam17h RAPL support
   - Introduce CAP_PERFMON to kernel and user space
   - Add Zhaoxin CPU support
   - Misc fixes and cleanups
 
 Tooling changes:
 
   perf record:
 
     - Introduce --switch-output-event to use arbitrary events to be setup
       and read from a side band thread and, when they take place a signal
       be sent to the main 'perf record' thread, reusing the --switch-output
       code to take perf.data snapshots from the --overwrite ring buffer, e.g.:
 
 	# perf record --overwrite -e sched:* \
 		      --switch-output-event syscalls:*connect* \
 		      workload
 
       will take perf.data.YYYYMMDDHHMMSS snapshots up to around the
       connect syscalls.
 
     - Add --num-synthesize-threads option to control degree of parallelism of the
       synthesize_mmap() code which is scanning /proc/PID/task/PID/maps and can be
       time consuming. This mimics pre-existing behaviour in 'perf top'.
 
   perf bench:
 
     - Add a multi-threaded synthesize benchmark.
     - Add kallsyms parsing benchmark.
 
   Intel PT support:
 
     - Stitch LBR records from multiple samples to get deeper backtraces,
       there are caveats, see the csets for details.
     - Allow using Intel PT to synthesize callchains for regular events.
     - Add support for synthesizing branch stacks for regular events (cycles,
       instructions, etc) from Intel PT data.
 
   Misc changes:
 
     - Updated perf vendor events for power9 and Coresight.
     - Add flamegraph.py script via 'perf flamegraph'
     - Misc other changes, fixes and cleanups - see the Git log for details.
