Hi,
I updated the patch, so we make progress on the heuristic retunning. There was
a segfault during profiledbootstrap trying to fetch DECL_STRUCT_FUNCTION of
calle of indirect call and I renamed percents to permilles since they are in
0...1000 range.
Bootstrapped/regtested x86_64-linux, comitted.

* predict.c (maybe_hot_count_p): Use threshold from profiled working
set instead of hard limit.
(cgraph_maybe_hot_edge_p): Invoke maybe_hot_count_p() instead of
directly checking limit.
* params.def (HOT_BB_COUNT_FRACTION): Remove.
(HOT_BB_COUNT_WS_PERMILLE): New parameter.
* invoke.texi (hot-bb-count-fraction): Remove.
(hot-bb-count-ws-permille): Document.
