Pekka Enberg reported weird percentages in perf report. It
turns out we are overflowing a 32-bit variables in struct
events_stats on 32-bit architectures.
Before:
[acme@ana linux-2.6-tip]$ perf report -i pekka.perf.data 2> /dev/null | head -10
281.96% Xorg b710a561 [.] 0x000000b710a561
140.15% Xorg [kernel] [k] __initramfs_end
51.56% metacity libgobject-2.0.so.0.2000.1 [.] 0x00000000026e46
35.12% evolution libcairo.so.2.10800.6 [.] 0x000000000203bd
33.84% metacity libpthread-2.9.so [.] 0x00000000007a3d
