Merge tag 'perf-urgent-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

* Fix up /proc/PID/maps parsing, where perfectly fine mmap entries
  were being trown away when synthesizing PERF_RECORD_MMAP for
  preexisting threads, prevenging symbol resolution to work
  for those threads, broken in the MMAP2 removal. Reported and
  pinpointed by Markus Trippelsdorf,

* Fix mem leak in the python 'perf script' backend, due to missing Py_DECREFs
  on dict entries, fix from Joseph Schuchart.
