I used the same command line but I can see more callchain entries.

It's interesting that some leaked kernel address are displayed in callchains 
even we use the -e cycles:u. Should be the skid issue. I have a patch for 
processing the kernel leaked samples but have not posted it.

But I'm no idea why only the leaked kernel address displayed in your example. :(

Thanks
