Thanks Namhyung!

I would recommend that this patch set be queued for 3.6, with the
following being cherry-picked for 3.5:

 patch 5, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 19, and 21

Some of the other patches have fixes for failed allocation. As these
bugs have been around in current perf since forever, they can probably
wait another release before being added. It's not like it will cause the
kernel to crash ;-)
