Subject: [PATCH v3 2/9] perf record: implement -f,--mmap-flush=<threshold>
 option


Implemented -f,--mmap-flush option that specifies threshold to postpone
and/or trigger the move of data from mmaped kernel buffers to a storage.

The option can be used to avoid capturing every single byte of data into
the stored trace. The default option value is 1.

  $ tools/perf/perf record -f 1024 -e cycles -- matrix.gcc
  $ tools/perf/perf record --aio -f 1024 -e cycles -- matrix.gcc

Implemented sync param is the mean to force data move independently from 
the threshold value. Despite a user provides flush value from the command 
line, the tool needs capability to drain memory buffers, at least in the 
end of the collection.
