linux-next: manual merge of the perf tree with the perf-current tree

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the perf tree got a conflict in:

  tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/arm64/ampere/ampereonex/memory.json

between commit:

  a89a17e152c8e ("perf vendor events arm64 AmpereOneX: Deprecate BPU_FLUSH_MEM_FAULT")

from the perf-current tree and commit:

  294b096cafe17 ("perf vendor events arm64 AmpereOneX: Deprecate BPU_FLUSH_MEM_FAULT")

from the perf tree.

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This
is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial
conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree
is submitted for merging.  You may also want to consider cooperating
with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly
complex conflicts.

The -next copy of the cherry pick has an extra '.'.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the notice. One thing worth knowing: the full stop is
intentional, so keeping it in the resolution is the right outcome.

It came out of review. James asked for it on v2:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/a188c604-46c0-48fb-9cbd-9eacad88b5c9@linaro.org/

and v3 added it:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20261107022145.1713159-1-takano32@gmail.com/

The copy in the perf tree is that v3. The copy in perf-current is the v2
that predates the review, so perf-current is the stale one - nothing more
than the period is missing from it.

Thanks,
TAKANO

Thanks for the clarification.  Sorry I missed Arnaldo already took this
patch into the current tree.  I'll merge it once it land on the mainline
and will resolve it correctly.

I think it's trivial so it'd be fine to leave v7.4 without the period.

Thanks,
Namhyung
