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)
