Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core
Pull perf/core improvements from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
User visible:
* Improve 'perf probe' error messages, moving some diagnostic messages to
only appear in --verbose mode and fixing up some error reporting related
to variables and struct members. (Masami Hiramatsu)
* Reflow 'perf timechart' man page. (Stanislav Fomichev)
Developer stuff:
* Be more precise when reporting missing libraries in a static tool build.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
* Show error messages from the multiple make invoked from 'make build-test'.
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
