Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] perf: Reorder overflow handler ahead of event_limit/sigtrap
Date:   Thu,  7 Dec 2023 08:34:56 -0800
Message-Id: <20231207163458.5554-2-khuey@kylehuey.com>
In-Reply-To: <20231207163458.5554-1-khuey@kylehuey.com>

The perf subsystem already allows an overflow handler to clear pending_kill
to suppress a fasync signal (although nobody currently does this). Allow an
overflow handler to suppress the other visible side effects of an overflow,
namely event_limit accounting and SIGTRAP generation.
