Thank you!
Hi Linus, Apologies for the _extremely_ late pull request here, but we had a 'perf' (i.e. CPU PMU) regression on the Apple M1 reported on Wednesday [1] which was introduced by bd2756811766 ("perf: Rewrite core context handling") during the merge window. Mark and I looked into this and noticed an additional problem caused by the same patch, where the 'CHAIN' event (used to combine two adjacent 32-bit counters into a single 64-bit counter) was not being filtered correctly. Mark posted a series on Thursday [2] which addresses both of these regressions and I queued it the same day. Unfortunately, the timing has meant that these two patches are yet to land in linux-next. We narrowly missed the 20230217 release and now we're into the weekend. The changes are small, self-contained and have been confirmed to fix the original regression, so I'd really appreciate it if you could please pull them in for 6.2 despite the caveat above. Thanks, and sorry again for the unfortunate timing.
