Hi

The kernel patches are in tip and the remaining tools patches still apply.
Remaining patches 11-15 are:

      perf tools: Add support for PERF_RECORD_TEXT_POKE
      perf tools: Add support for PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL_TYPE_OOL
      perf intel-pt: Add support for text poke events
      perf script: Add option --show-text-poke-events
      perf script: Show text poke address symbol

Is there anything else I can do for these?

Regards
Adrian
