Adrian Hunter ce41e5fc90 perf machine: Workaround missing maps for x86 PTI entry trampolines
commit 4d99e4136580d178e3523281a820be17bf814bf8 upstream.

On x86_64 the PTI entry trampolines are not in the kernel map created by
perf tools. That results in the addresses having no symbols and prevents
annotation.  It also causes Intel PT to have decoding errors at the
trampoline addresses.

Workaround that by creating maps for the trampolines.

At present the kernel does not export information revealing where the
trampolines are.  Until that happens, the addresses are hardcoded.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
