Ingo Molnar 9a969403c3 perf/urgent fixes:
- tracepoint_error() can receive e=NULL, robustify it, fixes a problem noticed
   with a very specific combination: Machine with Intel PT (e.g. Broadwell),
   kernel with no perf_event_attr.context_switch feature (e.g. 4.2) and unreadable
   tracefs (for instance !root users), making the fallback from
   perf_event_attr.context_switch to the sched:sched_switch tracepoint to fail
   reading its info from tracefs, fix it. (Adrian Hunter)
 
 - Fix segfault in intel pt, by making it follow the 'struct thread' lifetime cycle
   checking expectations, noticed for instance, when processing perf.data files with
   Intel PT data using 'perf script' and when exiting 'perf report' (Adrian Hunter)
 
 - Fix CFI usage from .eh_frame and .debug_frame, which sometimes requires that we
   fallback from .eh_frame to .debug_frame in architectures such as PowerPC (Hemant Kumar)
