Hi, Greg.

We've caught this build issue this week. I'm not sure since when it's
failing.

The upstream patch that fixes this is:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=fa713a4eb9cebe5dec71b1bd11429603e17d841d

commit fa713a4eb9cebe5dec71b1bd11429603e17d841d
Author: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
Date: Tue Mar 3 11:48:12 2015 -0300

perf ordered_events: Untangle from perf_session

But it doesn't apply straightforwardly. At
fa713a4eb9cebe5dec71b1bd11429603e17d841d, perf API and perf_evlist
struct are slightly different from linux-3.18.y.

A list of upstream patches for a clean backport (I think) would be:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=54245fdc357613633954bfd38cffb71cb9def067

Do you prefer all above patches backported to linux-3.18.y or just the
one-line fix I sent?

Some patches were left behind, I guess.
