Note: I tested this with some of the code I have available, but I'm unsure I'm 
doing it right. On my system, I never get avg_cycles != 0. I tried:

perf record -b --call-graph dwarf <some binary>
perf report --branch-history --no-children --stdio

I see predicted and iter values as before, so I think nothing is breaking. But 
I'm somewhat unsure. Can someone paste an example source code and the perf 
commands to get some meaningful avg_cycles? Or does this depend on a newer 
Intel CPU? I have currently only a Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-5600U CPU @ 2.60GHz 
available.

Cheers
