Yes, it's not a revert.  I intentionally didn't change the print type.

This is not simple.  As Brendan said, --children is default on, so
users will see 'caller' ordering that's why I didn't change the doc.
But I should mention it'll use 'callee' ordering when --no-chlidren.
I'm about to send doc fix patch Ingo requested, so please leave this
patch as is.

Thanks,
Namhyung
