Subject: [PATCH/RFC] perf tools: Handle old kernels when opening perf event
Changing default value of perf_guest back to false caused problems on old
kernels and its fix bc76efe64533 ("perf tools: Handle kernels that don't
support attr.exclude_{guest,host}") worked well for perf record/top.
But I've just realized that using specific events on perf stat makes same
kind of troubles too. It's because the parse_events calls event_attr_init
for all events so that it would have exclude_guest set.
Instead of fixing perf stat, I thought that changing perf_evsel__open()
is more appropriate. Please take a look and give comments - especially
on ->time_not_needed handling in builtin-record.c (I guess the original
code had a bug) and checking ->sample_id_all_missing inside of
perf_evsel__config (I believe checking it before perf_evsel__open is
meaningless since it will always have the same value - so I dropped it).
