Merge tag 'perf-urgent-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

 * Add color overhead for stdio output buffer, which fixes
   --stdio output being chopped up on the hot (red) entries,
   fix from Jiri Olsa.

 * Get 'perf record -g -a sleep 1' working again, removing the
   need for -- separating perf options from the workload, restoring
   ages old behaviour, fix from Jiri Olsa.
   More patches allowing ~/.perfconfig setting up of default
   callchain collecting method ("fp" or "dwarf") left for next
   merge window.

 * Fixup mmap event consumption, where we were acking the
   consumption by writing the tail before actually accessing
   the event, which could lead to using overwritten records
   in things like 'perf record --call-graph'. From Zhouyi Zhou.
