[PATCH/RFC 06/16] perf top: Get rid of access to hists->lock in perf_top__record_precise_ip()

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Thu Dec 10 2015 - 02:54:17 EST


It was accessed to release the lock before going to sleep, but now it
doesn't go to sleep anymore since warnings will be shown in the
display thread.
