Subject: Re: [PATCH V6] perf: Add PERF_SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR
Michael, Maddy,
Since PPC implements PERF_SAMPLE_ADDR this affects you guys too, please
have a look.

Please reflow that..

Michael, does this work for PPC as is?

Only problem with this now is that it requires SAMPLE_ADDR to also be
set in order to obtain data->addr.
Either fix all to set data->attr for (SAMPLE_ADDR || SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR)
or mandate SAMPLE_ADDR when SAMPLE_PHYS_ADDR.
