[PATCH v6 0/3] perf stat affinity changes

[Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>]

Change how affinities work with evlist__for_each_cpu. Move the
affinity code into the iterator to simplify setting it up. Detect when
affinities will and won't be profitable, for example a tool event and
a regular perf event (or read group) may face less delay from a single
IPI for the event read than from a call to sched_setaffinity. Add a
 --no-affinity flag to perf stat to allow affinities to be disabled.

v6: Drop merged tool event change. Move TPEBS fix into its own patch
    1st.

v5: Drop merged changes. Move tool event reading to first
    patch. Change --no-affinity flag to --affinity/--no-affinity flag.

    On v5 there was discussion with Andi Kleen who points out that
    affinities will work better with real time priorities but using
    this requires privileges.

v4: Rebase. Add patch to reduce scope of walltime_nsec_stats now that
    the legacy metric code is no more. Minor tweak to the ru_stats
    clean up.

v3: Add affinity clean ups and read tool events last.

v2: Fixed an aggregation index issue:
