Subject: [GIT PULL] perf fixes, leftover from v3.17
Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2014 08:56:02 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20141013065602.GA12670@gmail.com> (raw)

Linus,

Please pull the latest perf-urgent-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git perf-urgent-for-linus

   # HEAD: 9c2b9d30e28559a78c9e431cdd7f2c6bf5a9ee67 perf: Fix perf bug in fork()

Two leftover fixes from the v3.17 cycle - these will be forwarded 
to -stable as well, if they prove problem-free in wider testing 
as well.

 Thanks,

	Ingo
