[PATCH] perf bench: fix confused variable namings and descriptions in mem subsystem

From: Hitoshi Mitake
Date: Sun Jul 01 2012 - 11:06:34 EST


As Namhyung Kim pointed, there are confused namings and descriptions
of words "cycle" and "clock" in mem-memset.c and mem-memcpy.c.

With the option "-c" (or "--clock", now renamed as "--cycle"), mem
subsystem measures cost of memset() and memcpy() with cpu-cycles
event.

But current mem subsystem source code contains lots of confused
variable namings and descriptions with "clock" (e.g. the variable
use_clock). This is a very bad style because there is another software
event named "cpu-clock". This patch replaces wrong usage of "clock" to
"cycle".
