[PATCH 0/2] perf kvm stat live: Copy events

[Alexander Yarygin]

Hello,

This is a second attempt to fix 'perf kvm stat live' crash when it tries
to parse events that have been already overwritten by the kernel.
Previous thread: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/12/450

Patches
- 1/2 is patch by David Ahern (https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/9/6/388)
  rebased to the current upstream (hope I did it right). It adds an option
  to copy events when they are pushed to the samples queue.
- 2/2 enables the copying for perf kvm stat live.

Looks like we have to live with possibility to get thousands malloc()s/free()s
per second...
