Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"Two perf fixes:
- Do not check the LBR_TOS MSR when setting up unrelated LBR MSRs as
this can cause malfunction when TOS is not supported
- Allocate the LBR XSAVE buffers along with the DS buffers upfront
because allocating them when adding an event can deadlock"

perf/x86/lbr: Remove cpuc->lbr_xsave allocation from atomic context
perf/x86: Avoid touching LBR_TOS MSR for Arch LBR
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.
