  perf symbols: Look at .dynsym again if .symtab not found
  perf build-id: Add quirk to deal with perf.data file format breakage
  perf session: Pass evsel in event_ops->sample()
  perf: Better fit max unprivileged mlock pages for tools needs
  perf_events: Fix stale ->cgrp pointer in update_cgrp_time_from_cpuctx()
