Subject: [GIT PULL] perf updates

Ingo,

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

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

- Lock events seem to be usable now with perf
- Better performances in x86-64 stacktraces
- Trace events now have correct callchains
- Cleanups


Other patches still in discussion are not in the branch.

Thanks,
	Frederic
