Subject: [PATCH -tip] perf_counter tools: add support to set of multiple
 events in one short


Add support for HARDWARE and SOFTWARE events :
 perf stat -e all-sw-events
 perf stat -e sw-events
 perf stat -e all-hw-events
 perf stat -e hw-events

On AMD box :

./perf stat -e hw-events -e all-sw-events -- ls -lR > /dev/null

 Performance counter stats for 'ls -lR':

        9977353  cycles               #    557.193 M/sec  (scaled from 21.81%)
