Subject: [GIT PULL] perf scheduling updates: flexible/pinned groups reordering, optimizations

Ingo,

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

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

It brings more progresses wrt scheduling ordering between pinned
and flexible events.

There is still some work to do, for example concerning context spinlocks
that could be acquired once instead of multiple times in some areas.

But this set is still much more optimized than what we had before,
especially because of the third patch.

Thanks,
	Frederic

      perf: Allow pinned and flexible groups to be scheduled separately
      perf: Don't schedule out/in pinned events on task tick
      perf: Better order flexible and pinned scheduling
