Linus Torvalds 75013c6c52 - Make sure PMU internal buffers are flushed for per-CPU events too and
properly handle PID/TID for large PEBS.
 
 - Handle the case properly when there's no PMU and therefore return an
   empty list of perf MSRs for VMX to switch instead of reading random
   garbage from the stack.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
