perf stat: Count branches first
Count branches first, cache-misses second. The reason is that
on x86 branches are not counted by all counters on all CPUs.
Before:
Performance counter stats for 'ls':
0.756653 task-clock-msecs # 0.802 CPUs
0 context-switches # 0.000 M/sec
0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec
250 page-faults # 0.330 M/sec
2375725 cycles # 3139.781 M/sec
1628129 instructions # 0.685 IPC
19643 cache-references # 25.960 M/sec
4608 cache-misses # 6.090 M/sec
342532 branches # 452.694 M/sec
<not counted> branch-misses
0.000943356 seconds time elapsed
After:
Performance counter stats for 'ls':
1.056734 task-clock-msecs # 0.859 CPUs
0 context-switches # 0.000 M/sec
0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec
259 page-faults # 0.245 M/sec
3345932 cycles # 3166.295 M/sec
3074090 instructions # 0.919 IPC
616928 branches # 583.806 M/sec
39279 branch-misses # 6.367 %
21312 cache-references # 20.168 M/sec
3661 cache-misses # 3.464 M/sec
0.001230551 seconds time elapsed
(also prettify the printout of branch misses, in case it's
getting scaled.)
