binutils changed the signature of init_disassemble_info(), which now causes
compilation failures for tools/{perf,bpf}, e.g. on debian unstable.
Relevant binutils commit:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=60a3da00bd5407f07
This commit introduces a wrapper for init_disassemble_info(), to avoid
spreading #ifdef DISASM_INIT_STYLED to a bunch of places. Subsequent
commits will use it to fix the build failures.
It likely is worth adding a wrapper for disassember(), to avoid the already
existing DISASM_FOUR_ARGS_SIGNATURE ifdefery.

So, who is the author of this patch? Ben? b4 complained about it:
NOTE: some trailers ignored due to from/email mismatches:
! Trailer: Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <benh@debian.org>
Msg From: Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>
NOTE: Rerun with -S to apply them anyway
If it is Ben, then we would need a:
From: Ben Hutchings <benh@debian.org>
At the beginning of the patch, right?

I squashed a fixup of Ben into my patch (moving the include in annotate.c into
the HAVE_LIBBFD_SUPPORT section). I don't know what the proper procedure is
for that - I'd asked in

I don't know, I interact with the kernel processes too rarely...
