Ingo Molnar 3e411b0ee7 perf/urgent fixes:
- Only print NMI watchdog hint in 'perf stat' when it is enabled (Andi Kleen)
 
 - Fix sys_mmap/sys_old_mmap shandling in s390 in 'perf trace' (Jiri Olsa)
 
 - Disable breakpoint signal tests in powerpc, that lacks the perf kernel
   glue to set breakpoint events and makes 'perf test' always fail (Jiri Olsa)
 
 - Fix 'perf annotate' for branch instruction with multiple operands (Kim Phillips)
 
 - Add missing powerpc triplet when disassembling with 'objdump' in 'perf
   annotate' (Kim Phillips)
 
 - Do not trow away partial unwound stacks when using libdw, making
   callchains produced with it similar to those produced when linked with
   the other DWARF unwind library supported in perf, libunwind (Milian Wolff)
 
 - Fixes to properly handle kernel modules when processing build-id meta
   events (Namhyung Kim)
 
 - Fix handling of compressed modules in the build-id cache (Namhyung Kim)
 
 - Fix 'perf annotate' failure when filename has special chars (Ravi Bangoria)

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
