Pull exception table generation updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest change here is to allow the build-time sorting of the
exception table, to speed up booting. This is achieved by the
architecture enabling BUILDTIME_EXTABLE_SORT. This option is enabled
for x86 and MIPS currently.
On x86 a number of fixes and changes were needed to allow build-time
sorting of the exception table, in particular a relocation invariant
exception table format was needed. This required the abstracting out
of exception table protocol and the removal of 20 years of accumulated
assumptions about the x86 exception table format.
While at it, this tree also cleans up various other aspects of
exception handling, such as early(er) exception handling for
rdmsr_safe() et al.
All in one, as the result of these changes the x86 exception code is
now pretty nice and modern. As an added bonus any regressions in this
code will be early and violent crashes, so if you see any of those,
you'll know whom to blame!"
Fix up trivial conflicts in arch/{mips,x86}/Kconfig files due to nearby
modifications of other core architecture options.

Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
"Lots of changes:
- (much) improved assembly annotation support in perf report, with
jump visualization, searching, navigation, visual output
improvements and more.
- kernel support for AMD IBS PMU hardware features. Notably 'perf
record -e cycles:p' and 'perf top -e cycles:p' should work without
skid now, like PEBS does on the Intel side, because it takes
advantage of IBS transparently.
- the libtracevents library: it is the first step towards unifying
tracing tooling and perf, and it also gives a tracing library for
external tools like powertop to rely on.
- infrastructure: various improvements and refactoring of the UI
modules and related code
- infrastructure: cleanup and simplification of the profiling
targets code (--uid, --pid, --tid, --cpu, --all-cpus, etc.)
- tons of robustness fixes all around
- various ftrace updates: speedups, cleanups, robustness
improvements.
- typing 'make' in tools/ will now give you a menu of projects to
build and a short help text to explain what each does.
- ... and lots of other changes I forgot to list.
The perf record make bzImage + perf report regression you reported
should be fixed."

A new option is added to the relocs tool called '--realmode'.
This option causes the generation of 16-bit segment relocations
and 32-bit linear relocations for the real-mode code. When
the real-mode code is moved to the low-memory during kernel
initialization, these relocation entries can be used to
relocate the code properly.
In the assembly code 16-bit segment relocations must be relative
to the 'real_mode_seg' absolute symbol. Linear relocations must be
relative to a symbol prefixed with 'pa_'.
16-bit segment relocation is used to load cs:ip in 16-bit code.
Linear relocations are used in the 32-bit code for relocatable
data references. They are declared in the linker script of the
real-mode code.
The relocs tool is moved to arch/x86/tools/relocs.c, and added new
target archscripts that can be used to build scripts needed building
an architecture. be compiled before building the arch/x86 tree.
[ hpa: accelerating this because it detects invalid absolute
relocations, a serious bug in binutils 2.22.52.0.x which currently
produces bad kernels. ]

Merge reason: We are going to queue up a dependent patch:
"perf tools: Move parse event automated tests to separated object"
That depends on:
commit e7c72d8
perf tools: Add 'G' and 'H' modifiers to event parsing
Conflicts:
tools/perf/builtin-stat.c
Conflicted with the recent 'perf_target' patches when checking the
result of perf_evsel open routines to see if a retry is needed to cope
with older kernels where the exclude guest/host perf_event_attr bits
were not used.

Now you can do
$ make tools/<toolname>
from the toplevel kernel directory and have the respective tool built.
If you want to build and install it, do
$ make tools/<toolname>_install
$ make tools/<toolname>_clean
should clean the respective tool directories.
If you want to clean all in tools, simply do
$ make tools/clean
Also, if you want to get what the possible targets are, simply calling
$ make tools/
should give you the short help.
$ make tools/install
installs all tools, of course. Doh.

Add a config option to disable various gcc compiler optimizations that
make assembler listings much harder to read. This is everything that reorders
code significantly or creates partial functions.
This is mainly to keep kernel hackers sane.

Playing around with make randconfig I ended up with CONFIG_SAMPLES
set. After cleaning up the build I noticed that git status was
showing samples/hidraw/hid-example as an untracked file.
Adding samples to clean-dirs seems to solve the problem, but
I don't know if that is the correct way to solve the issue.

When using remake, which is based on gnumake, if you invoke
an example build as shown below, the build will become silent
due to the top level make file incorrectly guessing that
the end user wants a silent build because an argument that
contained an "s" was used. Here are two examples one with remake
and one with straight gnumake.
remake --no-extended-errors
make --warn-undefined-variables
Fix up the top level Makefile to use filter to parse the options
that mean silent instead of findstring catching other random
arguments containing an "s".

Add support for an "archheaders" target. This target can generate
files that need to be installed for user space by "make
headers_install" or "make headers_install_all".
In order to support "make headers_install_all", it must be able to run
without the tree having to be configured first.
