Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 75d5011714 perf trace: Setup DWARF callchains for non-syscall events when --max-stack is used
If we use:

	perf trace --max-stack=4

then the syscall events will use DWARF callchains, when available
(libunwind enabled in the build) and the printing will stop at 4 levels.

When we introduced support for tracepoint events this ended up not
applying for them, fix it.

Before:

  # perf trace --call-graph=dwarf --no-syscalls -e probe_libc:inet_pton ping -6 -c 1 ::1
  PING ::1(::1) 56 data bytes
  64 bytes from ::1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.058 ms

  --- ::1 ping statistics ---
  1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
  rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.058/0.058/0.058/0.000 ms
       0.000 probe_libc:inet_pton:(7fc6c2a16350))
  #

After:

  # perf trace --call-graph=dwarf --no-syscalls -e probe_libc:inet_pton ping -6 -c 1 ::1
  PING ::1(::1) 56 data bytes
  64 bytes from ::1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.087 ms

  --- ::1 ping statistics ---
  1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
  rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.087/0.087/0.087/0.000 ms
       0.000 probe_libc:inet_pton:(7fbf9a041350))

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.
