Merge branch 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull perf fixes from Ingo Molnar:

 - an s2ram related fix on AMD systems

 - a perf fault handling bug that is relatively old but which has become
   much easier to trigger in v3.13 after commit e00b12e64be9 ("perf/x86:
   Further optimize copy_from_user_nmi()")

* 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  perf/x86/amd/ibs: Fix waking up from S3 for AMD family 10h
  x86, mm, perf: Allow recursive faults from interrupts
