Vince Weaver e3c9782b1a perf_event_open.2: PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK updates 
This started out as just adding the new perf_event_open features
from Linux 3.11 (which was the addition of transactional memory
defines for PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK samples) but turned into a
general cleanup of the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK documentation.

The main clarification is that at least one of the non-privilege values
must be set or else perf_event_open will return an EINVAL error.

Christopher Hall abbcef30df printf.3: Correctly describe the meaning of a negative precision 
The printf(3) manpage says that a negative precision is taken to
be zero, whereas printf(3p) says that a negative precision is
taken as if the precision were omitted.  glibc agrees with the
latter (POSIX) specification.

Test code:

    printf("%f\n",42.0);      // "42.000000"
    printf("%.*f\n",0,42.0);  // "42"
    printf("%.*f\n",-1,42.0); // "42.000000"

This patch corrects the explanation to match what actually happens.
