Ingo,

Please pull the perf/urgent branch that can be found at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/random-tracing.git
perf/urgent

I couldn't get Oleg's review/ack for the generic ptrace part
but I think he was fine with the general solution when it was
a simple draft. Few things have changed since then, I essentially
addressed his review.

Thanks,
Frederic
