      Pull timers and perf fixes from Ingo Molnar:
       "Timers:
       - Fix another timekeeping bug
      
       Pef:
         - Make clean brace expansion fix for some shells, from Palmer Cox
      
         - Warn user just once per guest kernel when not finding kernel info,
           from David Ahern
      
         - perf test fix from Jiri Olsa
      
         - Fix error handling on event creation in perf top, from David Ahern
      
         - Fix check on perf_target__strnerror, from Namhyung Kim
      
         - Save the whole cmdline, from David Ahern
      
        There's this infrastructure change:
      
         - Prep work for the DWARF CFI post unwinder, so that it doesn't use
           perf_session in lots of places, just evlist/evsel is enough.
      
        which is a late infrastructure change that prepare for future feature
        work - we wanted it upstream to simplify the fixes/development patch
        flows."

      time: Fix adjustment cleanup bug in timekeeping_adjust() · 1d17d174
      Ingo Molnar authored
      Tetsuo Handa reported that sporadically the system clock starts
      counting up too quickly which is enough to confuse the hangcheck
      timer to print a bogus stall warning.
      
      Commit 2a8c0883 "time: Move xtime_nsec adjustment underflow handling
      timekeeping_adjust" overlooked this exit path:
      
              } else
                      return;
      
      which should really be a proper exit sequence, fixing the bug as a
      side effect.
      
      Also make the flow more readable by properly balancing curly
      braces.
