perf tools fixes for v6.4: 2nd batch
- Fix BPF CO-RE naming convention for checking the availability of fields on
'union perf_mem_data_src' on the running kernel.
- Remove the use of llvm-strip on BPF skel object files, not needed, fixes a
build breakage when the llvm package, that contains it in most distros, isn't
installed.
- Fix tools that use both evsel->{bpf_counter_list,bpf_filters}, removing them from a
union.
- Remove extra "--" from the 'perf ftrace latency' --use-nsec option,
previously it was working only when using the '-n' alternative.
- Don't stop building when both binutils-devel and a C++ compiler isn't
available to compile the alternative C++ demangle support code, disable that
feature instead.
- Sync the linux/in.h and coresight-pmu.h header copies with the kernel sources.
- Fix relative include path to cs-etm.h.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
