Pull perf fixes from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree contains various perf fixes on the kernel side, plus three
hw/event-enablement late additions:
- Intel Memory Bandwidth Monitoring events and handling
- the AMD Accumulated Power Mechanism reporting facility
- more IOMMU events
... and a final round of perf tooling updates/fixes"
* 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (44 commits)
perf llvm: Use strerror_r instead of the thread unsafe strerror one
perf llvm: Use realpath to canonicalize paths
perf tools: Unexport some methods unused outside strbuf.c
perf probe: No need to use formatting strbuf method
perf help: Use asprintf instead of adhoc equivalents
perf tools: Remove unused perf_pathdup, xstrdup functions
perf tools: Do not include stringify.h from the kernel sources
tools include: Copy linux/stringify.h from the kernel
tools lib traceevent: Remove redundant CPU output
perf tools: Remove needless 'extern' from function prototypes
perf tools: Simplify die() mechanism
perf tools: Remove unused DIE_IF macro
perf script: Remove lots of unused arguments
perf thread: Rename perf_event__preprocess_sample_addr to thread__resolve
perf machine: Rename perf_event__preprocess_sample to machine__resolve
perf tools: Add cpumode to struct perf_sample
perf tests: Forward the perf_sample in the dwarf unwind test
perf tools: Remove misplaced __maybe_unused
perf list: Fix documentation of :ppp
perf bench numa: Fix assertion for nodes bitfield
...
As it is used by several other tools, better move it outside tools/perf.

When building with CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION on a ppc64le host with an x86
cross-compiler, Stephen Rothwell saw the following objtool build errors:
DESCEND objtool

builtin-check.c:28:20: fatal error: string.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
objtool.c:28:19: fatal error: stdio.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
It fails to build because it tries to compile objtool with the
cross-compiler instead of the host compiler.
Ensure that it always uses the host compiler by ignoring CROSS_COMPILE.
In order to do that properly, the libsubcmd.a library needs to be built
in tools/objtool/ rather than tools/lib/subcmd/. The latter directory
contains the cross-compiled version which is needed for perf and
possibly other tools.
Note that cross-compiling for x86 on a _big_ endian system would result
in a bunch of false positive objtool warnings during the kernel build
because it isn't endian-aware. But that's generally a rare edge case
and there haven't been any reports of anybody needing that.

Move the subcommand-related files from perf to a new library named
libsubcmd.a.
Since we're moving files anyway, go ahead and rename 'exec_cmd.*' to
'exec-cmd.*' to be consistent with the naming of all the other files.
