Subject: [PATCH 9/9] perf, tools, stat: Document CSV format in manpage

From: Andi Kleen <ak@...ux.intel.com>

With all the recently added fields in the perf stat CSV output
we should finally document them in the man page. Do this here.

+	- unit of the counter value or empty
+	- event name
+	- counter value
