Besides, now we have annotation for the software event. Nice change!

Before,

 # ./perf_old stat -e 'data_read,task-clock' --no-merge -a sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

             47.76 MiB  data_read [uncore_imc_free_running_1] #    1.487

Now,

 # ./perf stat -e 'data_read,task-clock' --no-merge -a sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

             43.28 MiB  data_read [uncore_imc_free_running_1] #    1.347
