Thanks, Arnaldo!
I did however notice that you don't seem to have applied Patch 1/5 from this series: https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org/msg1347858.html
That patch is needed to ensure perf continues to work when ftrace README advertises support for ref_reloc_sym+offset for kretprobes. Can you please apply that as well?
