Subject: perf stat: flip around ':k' and ':u' flags
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.31-rc1~383^2~232
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d3f4b3855ba87caff8f35e738c7e7e3bad0a6ab1;p=karo-tx-linux.git

perf stat: flip around ':k' and ':u' flags

This output:

 $ perf stat -e 0:1:k -e 0:1:u ./hello
  Performance counter stats for './hello':
          140131  instructions         (events)
         1906968  instructions         (events)

Is quite confusing - as :k means "user instructions", :u means
"kernel instructions".

Flip them around - as the 'exclude' property is not intuitive in
the flag naming.
