ASoC: Fixes for v6.13

A few small fixes for v6.13, all system specific - the biggest thing is
the fix for jack handling over suspend on some Intel laptops.

Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.13-2024-11-24' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools

Pull perf tools updates from Namhyung Kim:
"perf record:

- Enable leader sampling for inherited task events. It was supported
only for system-wide events but the kernel started to support such
a setup since v6.12.

This is to reduce the number of PMU interrupts. The samples of the
leader event will contain counts of other events and no samples
will be generated for the other member events.

$ perf record -e '{cycles,instructions}:S' ${MYPROG}

perf report:

- Fix --branch-history option to display more branch-related
information like prediction, abort and cycles which is available
on Intel machines.

$ perf record -bg -- perf test -w brstack

$ perf report --branch-history

perf stat:

- Add HWMON PMU support.

The HWMON provides various system information like CPU/GPU
temperature, fan speed and so on. Expose them as PMU events so that
users can see the values using perf stat commands.

$ perf stat -e temp_cpu,fan1 true

Performance counter stats for 'true':

60.00 'C temp_cpu
0 rpm fan1

0.000745382 seconds time elapsed

0.000883000 seconds user
0.000000000 seconds sys

- Display metric threshold in JSON output.

Some metrics define thresholds to classify value ranges. It used to
be in a different color but it won't work for JSON.

Add "metric-threshold" field to the JSON that can be one of "good",
"less good", "nearly bad" and "bad".

# perf stat -a -M TopdownL1 -j true
{"counter-value" : "18693525.000000", "unit" : "", "event" : "TOPDOWN.SLOTS", "event-runtime" : 5552708, "pcnt-running" : 100.00, "metric-value" : "43.226002", "metric-unit" : "% tma_backend_bound", "metric-threshold" : "bad"}

perf sched:

- Add -P/--pre-migrations option for 'timehist' sub-command to track
time a task waited on a run-queue before migrating to a different
CPU.

Build:

- Make libunwind opt-in (LIBUNWIND=1) rather than opt-out.

The perf tools are generally built with libelf and libdw which has
unwinder functionality. The libunwind support predates it and no
need to have duplicate unwinders by default.

- Rename NO_DWARF=1 build option to NO_LIBDW=1 in order to clarify
it's using libdw for handling DWARF information.

Internals:

- Do not set exclude_guest bit in the perf_event_attr by default.

This was causing a trouble in AMD IBS PMU as it doesn't support the
bit. The bit will be set when it's needed later by the fallback
logic. Also update the missing feature detection logic to make sure
not clear supported bits unnecessarily.

- Run perf test in parallel by default and mark flaky tests
"exclusive" to run them serially at the end. Some test numbers are
changed but the test can complete in less than half the time.

JSON vendor events:

- Add AMD Zen 5 events and metrics.

- Add i.MX91 and i.MX95 DDR metrics

- Fix HiSilicon HIP08 Topdown metric name.

- Support compat events on PowerPC"

libperf: Explicitly specify install-html dependencies

install_doc of tools/lib/perf/Makefile invokes install-man,
install-html, and install-examples of
tools/lib/perf/Documentation/Makefile at once. This invocation succeeds
when make runs in serial but can fail when make runs in parallel because
while install-man of tools/lib/perf/Documentation/Makefile depends on
all, install-html depends on nothing and can run ahead of all.

Explicitly specify the dependencies of install-html to ensure that
they are resolved before install-html.

mask size limitation of cpu_set_t type.

perf report/top TUI:

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

- Make ENTER consistently present the pop up menu with and without call
chains, to eliminate confusion. The menu continues available at all times
use 'm' and '+' can be used to toggle just one call chain level, 'e' for all
the call chains for a top level histogram entry and 'E' to expand all call
chains in all top level entries. Extra info about these options was added to
the pop up menu entries. Pressing 'k' serves as special hotkey to go straight
to the main vmlinux entries, to avoid having to press enter and then select
"Zoom into the kernel DSO".

perf sched timehist:

David Ahern:

- Add support for filtering on CPU.

perf tests:

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

- Show expected versus obtained values in bp_signal test.

libperf:

- Move to tools/lib/perf.

- Add man pages.

libperf: Add man pages

Change the man page generation to asciidoc, because it's easier to use
and has been more commonly used in related projects. Remove the current
rst pages.

Add 3 man pages to have a base for more additions:

libperf.3 - overall description
libperf-counting.7 - counting basics explained on simple example
libperf-sampling.7 - sampling basics explained on simple example

The plan is to add more man pages to cover the basic API.

The build generates html and man pages:

$ cd tools/lib/perf/Documentation
$ make
ASCIIDOC libperf.xml
XMLTO libperf.3
ASCIIDOC libperf-counting.xml
XMLTO libperf-counting.7
ASCIIDOC libperf-sampling.xml
XMLTO libperf-sampling.7
ASCIIDOC libperf.html
ASCIIDOC libperf-counting.html
ASCIIDOC libperf-sampling.html

Add the following install targets:

install-html - html version of man pages
install-examples - examples mentioned in the man pages
