Ian Rogers af75201634 perf top: Allow filters on events
Allow filters to be added to perf top events. One use is to workaround
issues with:
```
$ perf top --uid="$(id -u)"
```
which tries to scan /proc find processes belonging to the uid and can
fail in such a pid terminates between the scan and the
perf_event_open reporting:
```
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 3 (No such process) for event (cycles:P).
/bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.
```
A similar filter:
```
$ perf top -e cycles:P --filter "uid == $(id -u)"
```
doesn't fail this way.

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 reStructuredText 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.
