  tools lib traceevent: Refactor pevent_filter_match() to get rid of die() (2013-12-13 10:30:22 -0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
perf/core improvements and fixes:

Fixes:

. Fix inverted error verification bug in thread__fork, from David Ahern.

New features:

. Shell completion for 'perf kvm', from Ramkumar Ramachandra.

Refactorings:

. Get rid of panic() like calls in libtraceevent, from Namyung Kim.

. Start carving out symbol parsing routines from perf, just moving routines to
  topic files in tools/lib/symbol/, tools that want to use it need to integrate
  it directly, i.e. no tools/lib/symbol/Makefile is provided.

. Assorted refactoring patches, moving code around and adding
  utility evlist methods that will be used in the IPT patchset,
  from Adrian Hunter.
