Subject: [RFC/PATCH 2/2] perf report: Add --time-filter option

From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung.kim@....com>

The --time-filter option is for limiting samples within a range of
time.  A time range looks like <time1>-<time2> and at most one of them
can be omitted.  This can be useful when analyzing a part of a huge
data only.
