Alyssa Ross f2c24ebadd perf docs: Fix accidental em-dashes
" -- " is an em dash (—) in asciidoc, so all these examples that were
supposed to be producing a literal two dashes were being misrendered.

Ian Rogers b027cc6fdf perf c2c: Fix 'perf c2c record -e list' to show the default events used
When the event is passed as list, the default events should be listed as
per 'perf mem record -e list'. Previous behavior is:

  $ perf c2c record -e list
  failed: event 'list' not found, use '-e list' to get list of available events

   Usage: perf c2c record [<options>] [<command>]
      or: perf c2c record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

      -e, --event <event>   event selector. Use 'perf mem record -e list' to list available events
  $

New behavior:

  $ perf c2c record -e list
  ldlat-loads  : available
  ldlat-stores : available

v3: is a rebase.
v2: addresses review comments by Jiri Olsa.

Kan Liang d80da766d1 perf c2c: Add option to enable the LBR stitching approach
With the LBR stitching approach, the reconstructed LBR call stack can
break the HW limitation. However, it may reconstruct invalid call stacks
in some cases, e.g. exception handing such as setjmp/longjmp.  Also, it
may impact the processing time especially when the number of samples
with stitched LBRs are huge.

Add an option to enable the approach.

Ravi Bangoria f0fabf9c89 perf mem/c2c: Fix perf_mem_events to support powerpc
PowerPC hardware does not have a builtin latency filter (--ldlat) for
the "mem-load" event and perf_mem_events by default includes
"/ldlat=30/" which is causing a failure on PowerPC. Refactor the code to
support "perf mem/c2c" on PowerPC.

This patch depends on kernel side changes done my Madhavan:

Jiri Olsa 190bacca16 perf c2c report: Coalesce by default only by pid,iaddr
It seems to be the most used argument for -c option so far.  In the
beginning when you want to have the overall process report, so it makes
sense to make it the default one.

Jiri Olsa d940baccc9 perf c2c report: Display total HITMs on default
Currently we display the cacheline list sorted on remote HITMs by
default.

The problem is that they might not be always counted and 'perf c2c
report' displays an empty output. Thus it's more convenient to display
and sort the cacheline list based on the total of HITMs and have the
best change to see data in the default report run.

Normally we limit the main list to contain only entries with HITM %
value > 0.0005, but it might be useful to display all captured entries.
Adding --show-all option for that.
