Okay, will change.

We can do it.  The output will look like below if we use
perf_event__fprintf():

          swapper     0 [009] 3350640.335261: sched:sched_switch: prev_comm=swapper/9
            sleep  9486 [009] 3350640.335509: PERF_RECORD_COMM: sleep:9486
            sleep  9486 [009] 3350640.335806: sched:sched_stat_runtime: comm=sleep pid=9486
          firefox  2635 [003] 3350641.275896: PERF_RECORD_FORK(2635:9487):(2635:2635)
          firefox  2635 [003] 3350641.275896: sched:sched_process_fork: comm=firefox pid=2635
            sleep  9486 [009] 3350641.336009: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(9486:9486):(9486:9486)


But I'd prefer original version below since it shows the changes more
intuitively, no?

Thanks,
Namhyung
