      Namhyung Kim reported that the build fails with:
      
        GEN python/perf.so
        gcc: error: python_ext_build/tmp//../../libtraceevent.a: No such file or directory
        error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

        make: *** [python/perf.so] Error 1
      
      We need to propagate the TE_PATH variable to the setup.py file.

      Merge tag 'perf-urgent-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent
      
      Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
      
      * The python binding needs to link with libtraceevent and to initialize
        the 'page_size' variable so that mmaping works again.
      
      * The callchain folding character that appears on the TUI just before
        the overhead had disappeared due to recent changes, add it back.
      
      * Intel PEBS in VT-x context uses the DS address as a guest linear address,
        even though its programmed by the host as a host linear address. This either
        results in guest memory corruption and or the hardware faulting and 'crashing'
        the virtual machine.  Therefore we have to disable PEBS on VT-x enter and
        re-enable on VT-x exit, enforcing a strict exclude_guest.
      
        Kernel side enforcement fix by Peter Zijlstra, tooling side fix by David Ahern.
      
      * Fix build on sparc due to UAPI, fix from David Miller.
      
      * Fixes for the srclike sort key for unresolved symbols and when processing
        samples in JITted code, where we don't have an ELF file, just an special
        symbol table, fixes from Namhyung Kim.
      
      * Fix some leaks in libtraceevent, from Steven Rostedt.

      Pull ARM soc fixes from Olof Johansson:
       "A set of fixes and some minor cleanups for -rc2:
      
         - A series from Arnd that fixes warnings in drivers and other code
           included by ARM defconfigs.  Most have been acked by corresponding
           maintainers (and seem quite hard to argue not picking up anyway in
           the few exception cases).
         - A few misc patches from the list for integrator/vt8500/i.MX
         - A batch of fixes to OMAP platforms, fixing:
           - boot problems on beaglebone,
           - regression fixes for local timers
           - clockdomain locking fixes
           - a few boot/sparse warnings
         - For Tegra:
           - Clock rate calculation overflow fix
           - Revert a change that removed timer clocks and a fix for symbol
             name clashes
         - For Renesas:
           - IO accessor / annotation cleanups to remove warnings
         - For Kirkwood/Dove/mvebu:
           - Fixes for device trees for Dove (some minor cleanups, some fixes)
           - Fixes for the mvebu gpio driver
           - Fix build problem for Feroceon due to missing ifdefs

      MODSIGN: Move the magic string to the end of a module and eliminate the search · caabe240
      David Howells authored
      Emit the magic string that indicates a module has a signature after the
      signature data instead of before it.  This allows module_sig_check() to
      be made simpler and faster by the elimination of the search for the
      magic string.  Instead we just need to do a single memcmp().
      
      This works because at the end of the signature data there is the
      fixed-length signature information block.  This block then falls
      immediately prior to the magic number.
      
      From the contents of the information block, it is trivial to calculate
      the size of the signature data and thus the size of the actual module
      data.
