Oh boy, I probably shouldn't do it after all out of fear of you coming
over ... :-)

Well, I did

git annotate arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event.c > blame.before

git annotate arch/x86/perf/perf_event.c > blame.after

The diff is:

and that include file change is only temporary in order to keep the

Sure, I can do that.

Also, I was thinking of doing this in 4-5 patches sets only so that we
can keep everything easily manageable.

For sure, I don't want to do one insane move in one go and cause
needless churn and regressions.
