Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo d4ccbacb9c perf top/report: Fix infinite loop in the TUI for grouped events
For a while we need to have a dummy event for doing things like
receiving PERF_RECORD_COMM, PERF_RECORD_EXEC, etc for threads being
created and dying while we synthesize the pre-existing ones at tool
start.

This 'dummy' event is needed for keeping track of thread lifetime events
early in the session but are uninteresting otherwise, i.e. no need to
have it in a initial events menu for the non-grouped case, i.e. for:

 # perf top -e cycles,instructions

or even for plain:

 # perf top

When 'cycles' and that 'dummy' event are in place.

The code to remove that 'dummy' event ended up creating an endless loop
for the grouped case, i.e.:

 # perf top -e '{cycles,instructions}'

Fix it.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
