The CFcommon file must now be present, which makes using the current
scripts against old kernel versions cumbersome. This commit therefore
makes the CFcommon file be optional, so that old kernel versions can be
used with current torture scripts.

The function machine__get_kernel_start_addr() was taking the first symbol
of kallsyms as the start address. This is incorrect in certain cases
where the first symbol is something at 0, while the actual kernel
functions begin at a later point (e.g. 0x80200000).
This patch fixes machine__get_kernel_start_addr() to search for the
symbol "_text" or "_stext", which marks the beginning of kernel mapping.
This was already being done in machine__create_kernel_maps(). Thus, this
patch is just a refactor, to move that code into
machine__get_kernel_start_addr().

There are a number of benchmarks that do single runs and as a result
does not really help users gain a general idea of how the workload
performs. So the user must either manually do multiple runs or just use
single bogus results.
This option will enable users to specify the amount of runs (arbitrarily
defaulted to 10, to use the existing benchmarks default) through the
'--repeat' option. Add it to perf-bench instead of implementing it
always in each specific benchmark.

While synchronizing what's in trace-cmd vs what's in perf, I came
across a change that was made when entering the jbd2 plugin into
the tools/lib/traceevent directory. For example, one of the function
prototypes went from:
unsigned long long process_jbd2_dev_to_name(struct trace_seq *s,
unsigned long long *args)
to:
static unsigned long long
process_jbd2_dev_to_name(struct trace_seq *s,
unsigned long long *args)
I can understand the line break after the long long, but there's no
reason to keep args on a separate line.

Commit [ac8dde11: “usb: gadget: f_fs: Add flags to descriptors block”]
which introduced a new descriptor format for FunctionFS removed the
usb_functionfs_descs_head structure, which is still used by ffs-test.
tool.
Convert ffs-test by converting it to use the new header format. For
testing kernels prior to 3.14 (when the new format was introduced) and
parsing of the legacy headers in the new kernels, provide a compilation
flag to make the tool use the old format.
Finally, include information as to when the legacy FunctionFS headers
format has been deprecated (which is also when the new one has been
introduced).

Caching dso data file descriptors to avoid expensive re-opens

When configuring event perf checked a wrong condition that user
specified both of freq (-F) and period (-c) or the event has no
default value. This worked because most of events don't have default
value and only tracepoint events have default of 1 (and it's not
desirable to change it for those events).
However, Andi's downloadable event patch changes the situation so it
cannot change the value for those events. Fix it by allowing override
the default value if user gives one of the options.
