Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull perf tooling updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "perf.data:

   - Streaming compression of perf ring buffer into
     PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED user space records, resulting in ~3-5x
     perf.data file size reduction on variety of tested workloads what
     saves storage space on larger server systems where perf.data size
     can easily reach several tens or even hundreds of GiBs, especially
     when profiling with DWARF-based stacks and tracing of context
     switches.

  perf record:

   - Improve -user-regs/intr-regs suggestions to overcome errors

  perf annotate:

   - Remove hist__account_cycles() from callback, speeding up branch
     processing (perf record -b)

  perf stat:

   - Add a 'percore' event qualifier, e.g.: -e
     cpu/event=0,umask=0x3,percore=1/, that sums up the event counts for
     both hardware threads in a core.

     We can already do this with --per-core, but it's often useful to do
     this together with other metrics that are collected per hardware
     thread.

     I.e. now its possible to do this per-event, and have it mixed with
     other events not aggregated by core.

  arm64:

   - Map Brahma-B53 CPUID to cortex-a53 events.

   - Add Cortex-A57 and Cortex-A72 events.

  csky:

   - Add DWARF register mappings for libdw, allowing --call-graph=dwarf
     to work on the C-SKY arch.

  x86:

   - Add support for recording and printing XMM registers, available,
     for instance, on Icelake.

   - Add uncore_upi (Intel's "Ultra Path Interconnect" events) JSON
     support. UPI replaced the Intel QuickPath Interconnect (QPI) in
     Xeon Skylake-SP.

  Intel PT:

   - Fix instructions sampling rate.

   - Timestamp fixes.

   - Improve exported-sql-viewer GUI, allowing, for instance, to
     copy'n'paste the trees, useful for e-mailing"
