  This automagically selects "--call-graph dwarf", use "--call-graph fp" on systems
  where -fno-omit-frame-pointer was used to built the components of interest, to
  incur in less overhead, or tune "--call-graph dwarf" appropriately, see 'perf record --help'.

- Allow /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack, that defaults to the old hard coded value
  of PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH (127), useful for huge callstacks for things like Groovy, Ruby, etc,
  and also to reduce overhead by limiting it to a smaller value, upcoming work will allow
  this to be done per-event (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Make 'perf trace --min-stack' be honoured by --pf and --event (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

- Make 'perf evlist -v' decode perf_event_attr->branch_sample_type (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   # perf record --call lbr usleep 1
   # perf evlist -v
   cycles:ppp: ... sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CALLCHAIN|PERIOD|BRANCH_STACK, ...
            branch_sample_type: USER|CALL_STACK|NO_FLAGS|NO_CYCLES
