Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] Minor fixes error handling of perf stat

This patchset fixes two issues that were seen when running
  "perf stat -r" with perf_event_paranoid=3

   1. failed with Too many open files.
     $ perf stat -r 1044 -- false
     ...
     failed to create 'go' pipe: Too many open files
     failed to prepare workload: Too many open files
     ...

   2. repating error message
     $ perf stat -r 1044 -- false
     Error:
     Access to performance monitoring and observability operations is limited.
     ...
     (repating with same error message 1044 times).

v4:
  - Move comments to run_perf_stat().

v3:
  - Fix comments.

v2:
  - Add some comments.

Levi Yun (2):
  perf stat: Close cork_fd when create_perf_stat_counter() failed
  perf stat: Stop repeating when ref_perf_stat() returns -1
