Subject: [PATCH 0/2] perf/x86/intel/bts: Small fixes

Hi Peter and Ingo,

Here are two small fixes that resulted from running perf_fuzzer on a !KPTI
kernel. One is a misguided and unannotated warning and another is a sketchy
use of page_private(). The choice between deleting the BTS driver and
fixing it is not obvious, though. It may theoretically still have users.

Alexander Shishkin (2):
  perf/x86/intel/bts: Remove a silly warning
  perf/x86/intel/bts: Fix the use of page_private()
