Subject: [PATCH v0 25/71] perf evsel: Add 'no_aux_samples' option

From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@...el.com>

Add an option to prevent additional
samples being added to a selected
event by perf_evsel__config().

This is needed when using the sched_switch
tracepoint to follow object code execution.
Since sched_switch will be used only for
switch information, additional sampling is
wasteful.
