Subject: [PATCH -tip 0/2] perf bench futex updates

Hi Arnaldo, here's the requested patch that gets rid of the struct alignment
tackling the main source of cacheline bouncing. In addition a small fix to
bogus inputs.

Thanks!

Davidlohr Bueso (2):
  perf/bench-futex: Avoid worker cacheline bouncing
  perf/bench-futex: Sanitize numeric parameters
