Makes sense, and I have queued the patch below, which I am assuming
that you want in the upcoming merge window.  If you don't tell me
otherwise, I will send you an urgent pull request later today.
Or, if you just put it directly into -tip yourself:

Reviewed-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>

Either way, please let me know.

Fair enough, especially given that perf was there first and is also way
more heavily used.  ;-)

But I am guessing that this one is OK for the v5.9 merge window.
Either way, I will update as you say.

    rcuperf: Fix kfree_mult to match printk() format
    
    This commit changes the type of kfree_mult from int to long in order
    to match the printk() format on 32-bit systems.
