Taking a look at this one now. I think some example commands and outputs
in the commit message would be helpful because there are quite a few
different things mentioned in the closes link.

But I'm assuming this is just for the command without specifying an event:

  $ perf stat

I didn't realise that wasn't working properly and I'd missed that Mark
spotted it in that link.
