Subject: [PATCH V3 10/13] perf: Extend perf_output_read

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@...ux.intel.com>

The event may have been updated in the PMU-specific implementation,
e.g., Intel PEBS counters snapshotting. The common code should not
read and overwrite the value.

The PERF_SAMPLE_READ in the data->sample_type can be used to detect
whether the PMU-specific value is available. If yes, avoid the
pmu->read() in the common code.
