Similar to my last email, this patch is not in urgent trees or Linus'
yet the problem exists in Linus' tree:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/17/82
$ /tmp/pbuild/perf record -a -- sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.319 MB perf.data (~13935 samples) ]
Segmentation fault
Root cause is the perf_guest setting.
$ /tmp/pbuild/perf --version
perf version 3.3.rc5.60.g203738

This one was tricky, IIRC, weren't follow up patches needed to plug some
extra problems?

Yeah, just trying cherry picking it and trying it on an RHEL6.2 kernel
and it didn't work because older kernels don't have
attr.exclude_{guest,host}, so I had to also cherrypick:
[acme@sandy linux]$ git cherry-pick
0c9781280fb672ca09c997df3f14ba506bbdb977
Finished one cherry-pick.

Right. And Ingo committed the kernel side patch. I can only recall those 3 fixes at the moment (first sips into the first cup of coffee :-)).
