Commit 9def39be4e96 ("x86: Support compiling out human-friendly
processor feature names") made two source file targets
conditional. Such conditional targets will not be cleaned
automatically by make mrproper.

Fix by adding explicit clean-files targets for the two files.

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Kernel side updates:

   - Fix and enhance poll support (Jiri Olsa)

   - Re-enable inheritance optimization (Jiri Olsa)

   - Enhance Intel memory events support (Stephane Eranian)

   - Refactor the Intel uncore driver to be more maintainable (Zheng
     Yan)

   - Enhance and fix Intel CPU and uncore PMU drivers (Peter Zijlstra,
     Andi Kleen)

   - [ plus various smaller fixes/cleanups ]

  User visible tooling updates:

   - Add +field argument support for --field option, so that one can add
     fields to the default list of fields to show, ie now one can just
     do:

         perf report --fields +pid

     And the pid will appear in addition to the default fields (Jiri
     Olsa)

   - Add +field argument support for --sort option (Jiri Olsa)

   - Honour -w in the report tools (report, top), allowing to specify
     the widths for the histogram entries columns (Namhyung Kim)

   - Properly show submicrosecond times in 'perf kvm stat' (Christian
     Borntraeger)

   - Add beautifier for mremap flags param in 'trace' (Alex Snast)

   - perf script: Allow callchains if any event samples them

   - Don't truncate Intel style addresses in 'annotate' (Alex Converse)

   - Allow profiling when kptr_restrict == 1 for non root users, kernel
     samples will just remain unresolved (Andi Kleen)

   - Allow configuring default options for callchains in config file
     (Namhyung Kim)

   - Support operations for shared futexes.  (Davidlohr Bueso)

   - "perf kvm stat report" improvements by Alexander Yarygin:
       -  Save pid string in opts.target.pid
       -  Enable the target.system_wide flag
       -  Unify the title bar output

   - [ plus lots of other fixes and small improvements.  ]

  Tooling infrastructure changes:

   - Refactor unit and scale function parameters for PMU parsing
     routines (Matt Fleming)

   - Improve DSO long names lookup with rbtree, resulting in great
     speedup for workloads with lots of DSOs (Waiman Long)

   - We were not handling POLLHUP notifications for event file
     descriptors

     Fix it by filtering entries in the events file descriptor array
     after poll() returns, refcounting mmaps so that when the last fd
     pointing to a perf mmap goes away we do the unmap (Arnaldo Carvalho
     de Melo)

   - Intel PT prep work, from Adrian Hunter, including:
       - Let a user specify a PMU event without any config terms
       - Add perf-with-kcore script
       - Let default config be defined for a PMU
       - Add perf_pmu__scan_file()
       - Add a 'perf test' for tracking with sched_switch
       - Add 'flush' callback to scripting API

   - Use ring buffer consume method to look like other tools (Arnaldo
     Carvalho de Melo)

   - hists browser (used in top and report) refactorings, getting rid of
     unused variables and reducing source code size by handling similar
     cases in a fewer functions (Namhyung Kim).

   - Replace thread unsafe strerror() with strerror_r() accross the
     whole tools/perf/ tree (Masami Hiramatsu)

   - Rename ordered_samples to ordered_events and allow setting a queue
     size for ordering events (Jiri Olsa)

   - [ plus lots of fixes, cleanups and other improvements ]"

<id>9def39be4e960917fcb80514ff23651f9ec97193</id>
<content type='text'>
The table mapping CPUID bits to human-readable strings takes up a
non-trivial amount of space, and only exists to support /proc/cpuinfo
and a couple of kernel messages.  Since programs depend on the format of
/proc/cpuinfo, force inclusion of the table when building with /proc
support; otherwise, support omitting that table to save space, in which
case the kernel messages will print features numerically instead.

In addition to saving 1408 bytes out of vmlinux, this also saves 1373
bytes out of the uncompressed setup code, which contributes directly to
the size of bzImage.

We've grown a bunch of microcode loader files all prefixed with
"microcode_". They should be under cpu/ because this is strictly
CPU-related functionality so do that and drop the prefix since they're
in their own directory now which gives that prefix. :)

While at it, drop MICROCODE_INTEL_LIB config item and stash the
functionality under CONFIG_MICROCODE_INTEL as it was its only user.
