Per-event overwrite term is not forbidden in 'perf top', which can bring problems. Because 'perf top' only support non-overwrite mode now. Add new rules and check regarding to overwrite term for 'perf top'. - All events either have same per-event term or don't have per-event mode setting. Otherwise, it will error out. - Per-event overwrite term should be consistent as opts->overwrite. If not, updating the opts->overwrite according to per-event term. Make it possible to support either non-overwrite or overwrite mode. The overwrite mode is forbidden now, which will be removed when the overwrite mode is supported later.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
