Merge tag 'perf-urgent-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent
Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
* Validate syscall id before growing syscall table in 'trace', fixing potential
excessive memory usage.
* Validate perf_sample.raw_data, making 'trace' more robust, avoiding some
potential SEGFAULTs when reading tracepoint fields.
* Fix exclude_guest parse events 'perf test's, from Jiri Olsa.
* Do not flush maps on COMM, that is sent by the kernel when a process is
exec'ed, but also when a process changes its name. Since we were assuming
a COMM always meant an EXEC, we were losing track of a process maps by
flushing its maps. Fix from Luigi Semenzato.
* A recent patch introduced a problem by not initializing what should be
the first kind of pager to use, 'man', instead it was being left as zero
which means no pager. This caused 'perf subcmd --help' to produce no output.
Fix from Namhyung Kim.
