[PATCH 23/33] perf evsel: Add 'no_aux_samples' option

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@xxxxxxxxx>

Add an option to prevent additional samples being added to a selected
event by perf_evsel__config().

This is needed when using the sched_switch tracepoint to follow object
code execution.  Since sched_switch will be used only for switch
information, additional sampling is wasteful.
