Subject: [GIT PULL 0/4] perf/annotate loop detection V2, fixes

Hi Ingo,

	Please consider pulling into tip/perf/core.

	Just flushing out the annotate queue before it gets too big.

	I'll work on the suggestions made on G+ and on lkml.

  perf annotate browser: Don't draw jump connectors for out of function jumps (2012-04-25 14:18:42 -0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Fixes on top of the previous perf/annotate pull request

. Sometimes a jump points to an offset with no instructions, make the
  mark jump targets function handle that, for now just ignoring such
  jump targets, more investigation is needed to figure out how to cope
  with that.

. Handle jump targets that are outside the function, for now just don't
  try to draw the connector arrow, right thing seems to be to mark this
  jump with a -> (right arrow) and handle it like a callq.
