Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux

I pushed a version of the crypto iov_iter bug fix that
Al Viro wrote, but Linus put in a different copy of the
same fix into his tree.

I then reverted my commit in net-next, and that's why we have a merge
when pulling in Linus's tree.

Merge commit 'a849088aa1' from rmk/fixes into cleanup/io-pci

As Stephen Rothwell reports, a849088aa155 ("ARM: Fix ioremap() of
address zero") from the arm-current tree and commit c2794437091a ("ARM:
Add fixed PCI i/o mapping") from the arm-soc tree conflict in
a nontrivial way in arch/arm/mm/mmu.c.

Rob Herring explains:
The PCI i/o reserved area has a dummy physical address of 0 and
needs to be skipped by ioremap searches. So we don't set
VM_ARM_STATIC_MAPPING to prevent matches by ioremap. The vm_struct
settings don't really matter when we do the real mapping of the
i/o space.

Since commit a849088aa155 is at the start of the fixes branch
in the arm tree, we can merge it into the branch that contains
the other ioremap changes.

* Initial bash completion support, from Frederic Weisbecker

* Allow building without libelf, from Namhyung Kim.

* Support DWARF CFI based unwind to have callchains when %bp
based unwinding is not possible, from Jiri Olsa.

* Symbol resolution fixes, while fixing support PPC64 files with an .opt ELF
section was the end goal, several fixes for code that handles all
architectures and cleanups are included, from Cody Schafer.

* Add a description for the JIT interface, from Andi Kleen.

* Assorted fixes for Documentation and build in 32 bit, from Robert Richter

* Add support for non-tracepoint events in perf script python, from Feng Tang

* Cache the libtraceevent event_format associated to each evsel early, so that we
avoid relookups, i.e. calling pevent_find_event repeatedly when processing
tracepoint events.

[ This is to reduce the surface contact with libtraceevents and make clear what
is that the perf tools needs from that lib: so far parsing the common and per
event fields. ]
