Subject: [PATCH v3 2/5] perf tools: Minimal DEFERRED_CALLCHAIN support
Add a new event type for deferred callchains and a new callback for the
struct perf_tool. For now it doesn't actually handle the deferred
callchains but it just marks the sample if it has the PERF_CONTEXT_
USER_DEFFERED in the callchain array.
At least, perf report can dump the raw data with this change. Actually
this requires the next commit to enable attr.defer_callchain, but if you
already have a data file, it'll show the following result.
$ perf report -D
...
