Merge branch 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf fixes from Ingo Molnar: "This tree includes various fixes" Ingo really needs to improve on the whole "explain git pull" part. "Various fixes" indeed. * 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: perf/hwpb: Invoke __perf_event_disable() if interrupts are already disabled perf/x86: Enable Intel Cedarview Atom suppport perf_event: Switch to internal refcount, fix race with close() oprofile, s390: Fix uninitialized memory access when writing to oprofilefs perf/x86: Fix microcode revision check for SNB-PEBS
