Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A set of fixes for perf:

    - A set of commits which reduce the stack usage of various perf
      event handling functions which allocated large data structs on
      stack causing stack overflows in the worst case

    - Use the proper mechanism for detecting soft interrupts in the
      recursion protection

    - Make the resursion protection simpler and more robust

    - Simplify the scheduling of event groups to make the code more
      robust and prepare for fixing the issues vs. scheduling of
      exclusive event groups

    - Prevent event multiplexing and rotation for exclusive event groups

    - Correct the perf event attribute exclusive semantics to take
      pinned events, e.g. the PMU watchdog, into account

    - Make the anythread filtering conditional for Intel's generic PMU
      counters as it is not longer guaranteed to be supported on newer
      CPU...
