Merge branch 'perf/core' into perf/uprobes

Merge in latest upstream (and the latest perf development tree),
to prepare for tooling changes, and also to pick up v3.4 MM
changes that the uprobes code needs to take care of.

  * Process-level increment to ->dynticks_nesting field.  This allows for
  * architectures that use half-interrupts and half-exceptions from
  * process context.
+ *
+ * DYNTICK_TASK_NEST_MASK defines a field of width DYNTICK_TASK_NEST_WIDTH
+ * that counts the number of process-based reasons why RCU cannot
+ * consider the corresponding CPU to be idle, and DYNTICK_TASK_NEST_VALUE
+ * is the value used to increment or decrement this field.
+ *
+ * The rest of the bits could in principle be used to count interrupts,
+ * but this would mean that a negative-one value in the interrupt
+ * field could incorrectly zero out the DYNTICK_TASK_NEST_MASK field.
+ * We therefore provide a two-bit guard field defined by DYNTICK_TASK_MASK
+ * that is set to DYNTICK_TASK_FLAG upon initial exit from idle.
+ * The DYNTICK_TASK_EXIT_IDLE value is thus the combined value used upon
+ * initial exit from idle.
