      tools headers: Sync {tools/,}arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h,... · c0621acf

      tools headers: Sync {tools/,}arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h, {tools/,}arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h and {tools/,}arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h
      
      The following upstream headers were updated:
      
       - The x86 cpufeatures.h file picked up a couple of new feature entries
       - The PowerPC and ARM KVM headers picked up new features
      
      None of which requires changes to perf tooling, so refresh the tooling copy.
      
      Solves these build time warnings:
      
       Warning: arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h differs from kernel
       Warning: arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h differs from kernel
       Warning: arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h differs from kernel

      perf tools: Propagate perf_config() errors · ecc4c561

      Previously these were being ignored, sometimes silently.
      
      Stop doing that, emitting debug messages and handling the errors.

      perf config: Do not consider an error not to have any perfconfig file · afc45cf5
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      While propagating the errors from perf_config(), which were being
      completely ignored, everything stopped working for people without a
      ~/.perfconfig file, because the perf_config_set__init() was considering
      an error not to have a .perfconfig file, duh, fix it by checking the
      errno after the failed stat() call.
      
      It should also not return an error when it says it is ignoring the file,
      and also a empty file should not return an error either.
