Subject: [PATCH 0/4] perf: Tasks and irq exclusion

Hi,

The new task and irq exclusion handling can let you
confine tracing and profiling to about everything you
want.

May be the only class of event I haven't tested yet is the
breakpoints and non-tracepoint software events.
Otherwise it works fine for hardware and tracepoints.

Thanks.

(Can be pulled there if you think it's fine:
