Yeah, I added him to the CC list in the patch when I merged it, Ingo had
asked me to do this quite some time ago, I also usually did:

$ perf report | grep -v ^#

When looking for the first few entries in a profile.

I think that with Namhyung's improvement to the man page + the single
line stating that --header should be used to get the previous behavior
we are ok, no?

I'll add this since I'll have to reprocess the last batch due to the
dso__delete problem.
