Merge commit 'perf/core' into perf/hw-breakpoint
Conflicts: kernel/Makefile kernel/trace/Makefile kernel/trace/trace.h samples/Makefile Merge reason: We need to be uptodate with the perf events development branch because we plan to rewrite the breakpoints API on top of perf events.

-----------
This driver does not probe for LTC4245 devices, due to the fact that some
-of the possible addresses are unfriendly to probing. You will need to use
-the "force" parameter to tell the driver where to find the device.
+of the possible addresses are unfriendly to probing. You will have to
+instantiate the devices explicitly.
Example: the following will load the driver for an LTC4245 at address 0x23
on I2C bus #1:
-$ modprobe ltc4245 force=1,0x23
+$ modprobe ltc4245
+$ echo ltc4245 0x23 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
