I'm getting the following error when I try to build perf from 4.9.36:

   util/probe-event.c: In function ‘post_process_module_probe_trace_events’:
   util/probe-event.c:685:3: error: implicit declaration of function ‘post_process_probe_trace_point’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
      ret = post_process_probe_trace_point(&tevs[i].point,
      ^
   util/probe-event.c:685:3: error: nested extern declaration of ‘post_process_probe_trace_point’ [-Werror=nested-externs]
   cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

At first blush, it looks like we're missing another patch upon which
this one depends.  However, after cherry-picking the fix for
3e96dac7c956089d3f23aca98c4dfca57b6aaf8a back to 4.9.36, the build then
fails with:

   util/probe-event.c:549:12: note: declared here
    static int get_text_start_address(const char *exec, unsigned long *address,
               ^
   util/probe-event.c: At top level:
   util/probe-event.c:672:1: error: ‘post_process_offline_probe_trace_events’ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
    post_process_offline_probe_trace_events(struct probe_trace_event *tevs,
    ^
   cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

It turns out that this has a second dependency,
8a937a25a7e3c19d5fb3f9d92f605cf5fda219d8.  After fiddling with this a
little bit more, I realized I need to invert the order to get a clean
merge of the two fixes.  This ordering is good:

8a937a25a7e3c19d5fb3f9d92f605cf5fda219d8
3e96dac7c956089d3f23aca98c4dfca57b6aaf8a 

With that I can get a clean build of the perf tree.  All of that said,
I'm not sure whether there are additional patches needed to fully
leverage the added functionality.  Perhaps Arnaldo or Masami can
comment?

Thanks,

-K
