[PATCH 08/21] perf: Add PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN to user data event

Jiri Olsa
2018-01-24T11:52:09Z

Adding PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN to user data event
and allowing to defer callchain retrieval to
user data task work.

Callchain data is stored in the same way as for
sample events. Using also the sample sample type
bits for the USER DATA event 'type' value.
