Subject: [GIT pull] perf fixes for 4.11

Linus,

please pull the latest perf-urgent-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git perf-urgent-for-linus

Two small fixes for perf:

  - The move to support cross arch annotation introduced per arch
    initialization requirements, fullfill them for s/390 (Christian Borntraeger)

  - Add the missing initialization to the LBR entries to avoid exposing
    random or stale data.

Thanks,

	tglx
