 - Do event name substring search as last resort in 'perf list'.

 - Reduce min 'perf stat --interval-print/-I' to 10ms. (Kan Liang)

   perf stat --interval in action:

   # perf stat -e cycles -I 50 -a usleep $((200 * 1000))
   print interval < 100ms. The overhead percentage could be high in some cases. Please proceed with caution.
   #   time                    counts unit events

 - Allow for max_stack greater than PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH, as when
   synthesizing callchains from Intel PT data. (Adrian Hunter)

 - Allow probing on kmodules without DWARF. (Masami Hiramatsu)

 - Fix a segfault when processing a perf.data file with callchains using
   "perf report --call-graph none". (Namhyung Kim)

 - Fix unresolved COMMs in 'perf top' when -s comm is used. (Namhyung Kim)

 - Register idle thread in 'perf top'. (Namhyung Kim)

 - Change 'record.samples' type to unsigned long long, fixing output of
   number of samples in 32-bit architectures. (Yang Shi)
