Subject: Re: [PATCH v8 4/8] perf record: Introduce rec->overwrite_evlist for
 overwritable events

Please try to make your patches more granular, for instance, in this
case you moved the call to perf_evlist__mmap_ex and all that block to a
function called record__mmap_evlist(), I had to check if you had
introduced any change in that block of code.

Instead you could've made a prep change, one that introduced
record__mmap_evlist() with that block, making clear in the changeset
that no change was introduced, I would check that anyway, but being in a
separate patch, would move this out of the way for the meat in this
patch, which is to introduce the rec->overwrite_evlist when backward
events were asked for.

Doing it this way will speed up processing of your patches and even more
importantly, will make our lives easier in the future when looking for
bugs :-\

I am breaking this down as described, please take a look at the result.

Thanks,

- Arnaldo
