Subject: [PATCH 2/4] perf: Align user space counter reading with code
Align the user space counter reading documentation with the code in
perf_mmap__read_self. Previously the documentation was based on the perf
rdpmc test, but now general purpose code is provided by libperf.
Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@...gle.com>
