Okay, so I changed it like below:

static void report__inc_stats(struct report *rep, struct hist_entry *he)
{
	/*
	 * The @he is either of a newly created one or an existing one
	 * merging current sample.  We only want to count a new one so
	 * checking ->nr_events being 1.
	 */
	if (he->stat.nr_events == 1)
		rep->nr_entries++;
}

This also eliminated the unneeded nr_samples field.

Thanks,
Namhyung
