Subject: [GIT PULL] uprobes/perf: pre-filtering

OK, nobody has comments. Ingo, please pull from

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/oleg/misc uprobes/core

Changes:
	- fix the conflict with d24d7dbf which added the (unsafe) check
	  into create_trace_uprobe()

	- drop "Kill the "uprobe != NULL" check in uprobe_unregister()",
	  the same patch from Sasha Levin was already applied as c91368c4

	- drop "perf: Ensure we do not free event->parent before event"
	  http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=136000475509419

	  Currently it is not necessary and it wasn't reviewed. But perhaps
	  I'll resend it later.

Simple performance test:

	# time perl -e 'syscall -1 for 1..100_000'
	real    0m0.040s
	user    0m0.027s
	sys     0m0.010s
	
	# perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 syscall
	# perf record -e probe_libc:syscall sleep 100 &

Before this series:

	# time perl -e 'syscall -1 for 1..100_000'
	real    0m1.714s
	user    0m0.103s
	sys     0m1.607s

After:
	real    0m0.037s
	user    0m0.013s
	sys	0m0.023s

The untraced process is not penalized.
