Merge branch 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull perf tooling updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - handle uretprobe placement proper on little endian PPC64

 - fix buffer handling in libtraceevent

 - add a missing pointer derefence in perf probe

 - fix the build of host tools in cross builds

 - fix Intel PT timestamp handling

 - synchronize memcpy, cpufeatures and bpf headers with the kernel headers

 - support for vendor supplied JSON files describing PMU events

 - a new set of tool tips

 - initial work for clang/llvm support

 - address some style issues found by cppcheck
