Merge branch 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A pile of perf updates: - Fix broken sanity check in the /proc/sys/kernel/perf_cpu_time_max_percent write handler - Cure a perf script crash which caused by an unitinialized data structure - Highlight the hottest instruction in perf top and not a random one - Cure yet another clang issue when building perf python - Handle topology entries with no CPU correctly in the tools - Handle perf data which contains both tracepoints and performance counter entries correctly. - Add a missing NULL pointer check in perf ordered_events_free()" * 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: perf script: Fix crash when processing recorded stat data perf top: Fix wrong hottest instruction highlighted perf tools: Handle TOPOLOGY headers with no CPU perf python: Remove -fstack-clash-protection when building with some clang versions perf core: Fix perf_proc_update_handler() bug perf script: Fix crash with printing mixed trace point and other events perf ordered_events: Fix crash in ordered_events__free
