Pull perf tooling fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"Core libraries:
- Fix max perf_event_attr.precise_ip detection.
- Fix parser error for uncore event alias
- Fixup ordering of kernel maps after obtaining the main kernel map
address.
Intel PT:
- Fix TSC slip where A TSC packet can slip past MTC packets so that
the timestamp appears to go backwards.
- Fixes for exported-sql-viewer GUI conversion to python3.
ARM coresight:
- Fix the build by adding a missing case value for enumeration value
introduced in newer library, that now is the required one.
tool headers:
- Syncronize kernel headers with the kernel, getting new io_uring and
pidfd_send_signal syscalls so that 'perf trace' can handle them"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
