perf stat: Don't print bogus data on -e instructions

Browse source

When only the instructions event is requested:

$ perf stat -e instructions git s
M  builtin-stat.c

 Performance counter stats for 'git s':

       917,453,420 instructions              #    0.00  insns per cycle

       0.213002926 seconds time elapsed

The 0.00 insns per cycle comment in the output is totally bogus and
misleading. It happens because update_shadow_stats() doesn't touch
runtime_cycles_stats when only the instructions event is requested. So,
omit printing the bogus data altogether.
