Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux

The perf mmap'ed buffer contains the flag 'cap_user_time_short' and two extra fields 'time_cycles' and 'time_mask', perf tool needs to know them for handling the counter wrapping case. This patch is to reads out the relevant parameters from the head of the first mmap'ed page and stores into the structure 'perf_tsc_conversion', if the flag 'cap_user_time_short' has been set, it will firstly calibrate cycle value for timestamp calculation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
