Merge tag 'perf-urgent-2021-08-08' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of perf fixes:
- Correct the permission checks for perf event which send SIGTRAP to
a different process and clean up that code to be more readable.
- Prevent an out of bound MSR access in the x86 perf code which
happened due to an incomplete limiting to the actually available
hardware counters.
- Prevent access to the AMD64_EVENTSEL_HOSTONLY bit when running
inside a guest.
- Handle small core counter re-enabling correctly by issuing an ACK
right before reenabling it to prevent a stale PEBS record being
kept around"
