Linus Torvalds 8b98436af2 perf tools fixes for 5.16: 1st batch
- Fix the 'local_weight', 'weight' (memory access latency), 'local_ins_lat',
   'ins_lat' (instruction latency) and 'pstage_cyc' (pipeline stage cycles) sort
   key sample aggregation.
 
 - Fix 'perf test' entry for watchpoints on s/390.
 
 - Fix branch_stack entry endianness check in the 'perf test' sample parsing test.
 
 - Fix ARM SPE handling on 'perf inject'.
 
 - Fix memory leaks detected with ASan.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
