Ian Rogers 2440689d62 perf metricgroup: Remove duped metric group events
A metric group contains multiple metrics. These metrics may use the same
events. If metrics use separate events then it leads to more
multiplexing and overall metric counts fail to sum to 100%.

Modify how metrics are associated with events so that if the events in
an earlier group satisfy the current metric, the same events are used.
A record of used events is kept and at the end of processing unnecessary
events are eliminated.

Before:

  $ perf stat -a -M TopDownL1 sleep 1

Note: Bad_Speculation + Backend_Bound + Frontend_Bound + Retiring = 100%
after, where as before it is 110%. After there are 2 groups, whereas
before there are 6. After the cycles event appears once, before it
appeared 5 times.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
