That's nice. Would be good to also print this in perf report --stdio
output (without -D), like the samples are.

Could you please do the same for the normal PERF_RECORD_LOST too?
There we don't have a exact percentage, but at least could count the
lost events too. This can be a separate patch of course, doesn't need
to be tied to this patchkit.
