Merge branch 'tip/perf/core' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace into perf/core

Add a sanity test of x86 insn decoder against a stream
of randomly generated input, at build time.

This test is also able to reproduce any bug that might
trigger by allowing the passing of random-seed and
iteration-number to the test, or by passing input
which has invalid byte code.

Changes in V2:
 - Code cleanup.
 - Show how to reproduce the error by insn_sanity test.

Alek Du reported that the code erroneously applies time to jiffies
conversions twice to the t1 and t2 values. In normal use on a modem link
this cases no visible problem but on a slower link it will break as with
HZ=1000 as is typical we are running t1/t2 ten times too fast.

Alek's original patch removed the conversion from the timer setting but we
in fact have to be more careful as the contents of t1/t2 are visible via
the device API and we thus need to correct the constants.

Mountpoint crossing is similar to following procfs symlinks - we do
not get ->d_revalidate() called for dentry we have arrived at, with
unpleasant consequences for NFS4.

Simple way to reproduce the problem in mainline:

    cat >/tmp/a.c <<'EOF'
    #include <unistd.h>
    #include <fcntl.h>
    #include <stdio.h>
    main()
    {
            struct flock fl = {.l_type = F_RDLCK, .l_whence = SEEK_SET, .l_len = 1};
            if (fcntl(0, F_SETLK, &fl))
                    perror("setlk");
    }
    EOF
    cc /tmp/a.c -o /tmp/test

then on nfs4:

    mount --bind file1 file2
    /tmp/test < file1		# ok
    /tmp/test < file2		# spews "setlk: No locks available"...

What happens is the missing call of ->d_revalidate() after mountpoint
crossing and that's where NFS4 would issue OPEN request to server.

The fix is simple - treat mountpoint crossing the same way we deal with
following procfs-style symlinks.  I.e.  set LOOKUP_JUMPED...

In case the the graph tracer (CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER) or even the
function tracer (CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER) are not set, the latency tracers
do not display proper latency header.

The involved/fixed latency tracers are:
        wakeup_rt
        wakeup
        preemptirqsoff
        preemptoff
        irqsoff

The patch adds proper handling of tracer configuration options for latency
tracers, and displaying correct header info accordingly.

  tracers disabled is:

If the set_ftrace_filter is cleared by writing just whitespace to
it, then the filter hash refcounts will be decremented but not
updated. This causes two bugs:

1) No functions will be enabled for tracing when they all should be

2) If the users clears the set_ftrace_filter twice, it will crash ftrace:

Rx byte count was off; instead use the hardware's count.  Tx packet
count was counting pre-TSO packets; instead count on-the-wire packets.
Report hardware dropped frame count as rx_fifo_errors.

- The count of transmitted packets reported by the forcedeth driver
  reports pre-TSO (TCP Segmentation Offload) packet counts and not the
  count of the number of packets sent on the wire. This change fixes
  the forcedeth driver to report the correct count. Fixed the code by
  copying the count stored in the NIC H/W to the value reported by the
  driver.

- Count rx_drop_frame errors as rx_fifo_errors:
  We see a lot of rx_drop_frame errors if we disable the rx bottom-halves
  for too long.  Normally, rx_fifo_errors would be counted in this case.
  The rx_drop_frame error count is private to forcedeth and is not
  reported by ifconfig or sysfs.  The rx_fifo_errors count is currently
  unused in the forcedeth driver.  It is reported by ifconfig as overruns.
  This change reports rx_drop_frame errors as rx_fifo_errors.

Function ndo_get_stats() updates most of the stats from hardware
registers, making the manual updates un-needed. This change removes
these manual updates. Main exception is rx_missed_errors which needs
manual update.

Another exception is rx_packets, still updated manually in this commit
to make sure this patch doesn't change behavior of driver. This will
be addressed by a future patch.

This is to avoid a race, accidentally acknowledging an interrupt that
we didn't notice and won't immediately process.  This is based solely
on code inspection; it is not known if there was an actual bug here.

When forcedeth module is unloaded, there exists a path that can lead
to mod_timer() after del_timer_sync(), causing an oops. This patch
short-circuits this unneeded path, which originates in
nv_get_ethtool_stats().

Tested:
  x86_64 16-way + 3 ethtool -S infinite loops + 100Mbps incoming traffic
  + rmmod/modprobe/ifconfig in a loop
