  perf tools: Add bpf image check to __map__is_kmodule (2020-09-03 16:04:46 -0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
perf tools fixes for v5.9: 2nd batch

- Use uintptr_t when casting numbers to pointers

- Keep output expected by 3rd parties: Turn off summary for interval
  mode by default.

- BPF is in kernel space, make sure do_validate_kcore_modules() knows
  about that.

- Explicitly call out event modifiers in the documentation.

- Fix jevents() allocation of space for regular expressions.

- Address libtraceevent build warnings on 32-bit arches.

- Fix checking of functions returns using ERR_PTR() in 'perf bench'.
