Subject[PATCH 1/1] tools headers UAPI: Sync linux/perf_event.h with the kernel sources
Just FYI, carrying this in my tree:

---

To pick the trivial change in:

ddecd22878601a60 ("perf: uapi: Document perf_event_attr::sig_data truncation on 32 bit architectures")

Just adds a comment.

This silences this perf build warning:

Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h' differs from latest version at 'include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h'
diff -u tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h
