On ancient systems I get this build failure:
util/../../../arch/x86/include/asm/unistd.h:67:29: error: asm/unistd_64.h: No such file or directory
In file included from util/cache.h:7,
from builtin-test.c:8:
util/../perf.h: In function ‘sys_perf_event_open’:In file included from util/../perf.h:16
perf.h:170: error: ‘__NR_perf_event_open’ undeclared (first use in this function)
The reason is that this old system does not have the split
unistd.h headers yet, from which to pick up the syscall
definitions.
Add the syscall numbers to the already existing i386 and x86_64
blocks in perf.h, and also provide empty include file stubs.
With this patch perf builds and works fine on 5 years old
user-space as well.

The major features of this series are:
- making RCU more aggressive about entering dyntick-idle mode in order to
improve energy efficiency
- converting a few more call_rcu()s to kfree_rcu()s
- applying a number of rcutree fixes and cleanups to rcutiny
- removing CONFIG_SMP #ifdefs from treercu
- allowing RCU CPU stall times to be set via sysfs
- adding CPU-stall capability to rcutorture
- adding more RCU-abuse diagnostics
- updating documentation
- fixing yet more issues located by the still-ongoing top-to-bottom
inspection of RCU, this time with a special focus on the
CPU-hotplug code path.

So here's a boot tested patch on top of Jason's series that does
all the cleanups I talked about and turns jump labels into a
more intuitive to use facility. It should also address the
various misconceptions and confusions that surround jump labels.
Typical usage scenarios:
#include <linux/static_key.h>
struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_TRUE;
if (static_key_false(&key))
do unlikely code
else
do likely code
Or:
if (static_key_true(&key))
do likely code
else
do unlikely code
The static key is modified via:
static_key_slow_inc(&key);
...
static_key_slow_dec(&key);
The 'slow' prefix makes it abundantly clear that this is an
expensive operation.
I've updated all in-kernel code to use this everywhere. Note
that I (intentionally) have not pushed through the rename
blindly through to the lowest levels: the actual jump-label
patching arch facility should be named like that, so we want to
decouple jump labels from the static-key facility a bit.
On non-jump-label enabled architectures static keys default to
likely()/unlikely() branches.

This commit:
12d6d41276: clocksource: scx200_hrt: Convert scx200 to use clocksource_register_hz
Breaks the build on x86-32:
drivers/clocksource/scx200_hrt.c: In function ‘init_hrt_clocksource’:
drivers/clocksource/scx200_hrt.c:95:0: error: unterminated argument list invoking macro "pr_info"
drivers/clocksource/scx200_hrt.c:84:2: error: ‘pr_info’ undeclared (first use in this function)
It could not possibly have been build tested, because it had this mismerge:
pr_info("enabling scx200 high-res timer (%s MHz +%d ppm)\n",
printk(KERN_INFO "enabling scx200 high-res timer (%s MHz +%d ppm)\n",
mhz27 ? "27":"1", ppm);

Make the uprobes code readable to me:
- improve the Kconfig text so that a mere mortal gets some idea
what CONFIG_UPROBES=y is really about
- do trivial renames to standardize around the uprobes_*() namespace
- clean up and simplify various code flow details
- separate basic blocks of functionality
- line break artifact and white space related removal
- use standard local varible definition blocks
- use vertical spacing to make things more readable
- remove unnecessary volatile
- restructure comment blocks to make them more uniform and
more readable in general

I'm using a fairly recent binutils:
GNU objdump version 2.21.51.0.6-2.fc16 20110118
AFAICS the bug is simply that sym->end points to the last byte
of the symbol in question - while objdump's --stop-address
expects the last byte plus 1 to disassemble the full range.
