Subject: [PATCH 2/2] perf tools: Use getconf to determine number of online CPUs

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@....com>

Parsing /proc/cpuinfo is a fiddly, arch-dependent business and a recent
change to get it working for Sparc broke arm and arm64 platforms.

Use sysconf to determine the number of online CPUs only parsing
/proc/cpuinfo when sysconf is not available.

[ Made it fall back to parsing /proc when getconf not found ]
