Pull performance events updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Callchain support:

   - Add support for deferred user-space stack unwinding for perf,
     enabled on x86. (Peter Zijlstra, Steven Rostedt)

   - unwind_user/x86: Enable frame pointer unwinding on x86 (Josh
     Poimboeuf)

  x86 PMU support and infrastructure:

   - x86/insn: Simplify for_each_insn_prefix() (Peter Zijlstra)

   - x86/insn,uprobes,alternative: Unify insn_is_nop() (Peter Zijlstra)

  Intel PMU driver:

   - Large series to prepare for and implement architectural PEBS
     support for Intel platforms such as Clearwater Forest (CWF) and
     Panther Lake (PTL). (Dapeng Mi, Kan Liang)

   - Check dynamic constraints (Kan Liang)

   - Optimize PEBS extended config (Peter Zijlstra)

   - cstates:
      - Remove PC3 support from LunarLake (Zhang Rui)
      - Add Pantherlake support (Zhang Rui)
      - Clearwater Forest support (Zide Chen)

  AMD PMU driver:

   - x86/amd: Check event before enable to avoid GPF (George Kennedy)

  Fixes and cleanups:

   - task_work: Fix NMI race condition (Peter Zijlstra)

   - perf/x86: Fix NULL event access and potential PEBS record loss
     (Dapeng Mi)

   - Misc other fixes and cleanups (Dapeng Mi, Ingo Molnar, Peter
     Zijlstra)"
