perfctr was almost-ready-for-merge. Then it was decided that perfmon was
the way ahead, and perfctr died. And now perfmon isn't making progress in
the kernelwards direction (worse, perfmon is getting bigger, thus making a
merge harder and harder). So we now have the worst of all worlds.

This is a problem. I'd suggest that at this time we should be
concentrating on getting perfmon merged up rather than adding more stuff to
the out-of-tree version.

IOW: please send patches ;)

And keep sending them. People want this.

Thanks.
