Subject: [PATCH 4/3] perf_counter: Correct PERF_SAMPLE_RAW output

Subject: perf_counter: Correct PERF_SAMPLE_RAW output
From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@...llo.nl>
Date: Mon Aug 10 11:16:52 CEST 2009

PERF_SAMPLE_* output switches should unconditionally output the
correct format, as they are the only way to unambiguously parse the
PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE data.
