uprobes: Default UPROBES_EVENTS to Y (2017-03-16 12:42:02 -0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements and fixes:

New features:

- Add 'brstackinsn' field in 'perf script' to reuse the x86 instruction
decoder used in the Intel PT code to study hot paths to samples (Andi Kleen)

Kernel:

- Default UPROBES_EVENTS to Y (Alexei Starovoitov)

- Fix check for kretprobe offset within function entry (Naveen N. Rao)

Infrastructure:

- Introduce util func is_sdt_event() (Ravi Bangoria)

- Make perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events() scale on older kernels where
reading /proc/pid/maps is way slower than reading /proc/pid/task/pid/maps (Stephane Eranian)

Test results:

The first ones are container (docker) based builds of tools/perf with and
without libelf support, objtool where it is supported and samples/bpf/, ditto.
Where clang is available, it is also used to build perf with/without libelf.

Several are cross builds, the ones with -x-ARCH, and the android one, and those
may not have all the features built, due to lack of multi-arch devel packages,
available and being used so far on just a few, like
debian:experimental-x-{arm64,mipsel}.

The 'perf test' one will perform a variety of tests exercising
tools/perf/util/, tools/lib/{bpf,traceevent,etc}, as well as run perf commands
with a variety of command line event specifications to then intercept the
sys_perf_event syscall to check that the perf_event_attr fields are set up as
expected, among a variety of other unit tests.

Then there is the 'make -C tools/perf build-test' ones, that build tools/perf/
with a variety of feature sets, exercising the build with an incomplete set of
features as well as with a complete one. It is planned to have it run on each
of the containers mentioned above, using some container orchestration
infrastructure. Get in contact if interested in helping having this in place.
