 "perf report:

   - Add 'comm_nodigit' sort key to combine similar threads that only
     have different numbers in the comm. In the following example, the
     'comm_nodigit' will have samples from all threads starting with
     "bpfrb/" into an entry "bpfrb/<N>".

        $ perf report -s comm_nodigit,comm -H

   - Support flat layout for symfs. The --symfs option is to specify the
     location of debugging symbol files. The default 'hierarchy' layout
     would search the symbol file using the same path of the original
     file under the symfs root. The new 'flat' layout would search only
     in the root directory.

   - Update 'simd' sort key for ARM SIMD flags to cover ASE/SME and more
     predicate flags.

  perf stat:

   - Add --pmu-filter option to select specific PMUs. This would be
     useful when you measure metrics from multiple instance of uncore
     PMUs with similar names.

  Data type profiling:

   - Quality improvements by tracking register state more precisely

   - Ensure array members to get the type

   - Handle more cases for global variables

  Vendor event/metric updates:

   - Update various Intel events and metrics

   - Add NVIDIA Tegra 410 Olympus events

  Internal changes:

   - Verify perf.data header for maliciously crafted files

   - Update perf test to cover more usages and make them robust

   - Move a couple of copied kernel headers not to annoy objtool build

   - Fix a bug in map sorting in name order

   - Remove some unused codes

  Misc:

   - Fix module symbol resolution with non-zero text address

   - Add -t/--threads option to `perf bench mem mmap`

   - Track duration of exit*() syscall by `perf trace -s`
