so you're using callchain struct to hold the entry's stack
position for sorting.. I think we could store this info
inside hist_entry itself, and omit 'struct callchain_root'
size being allocated for hist_entry

I checked 'struct hist_entry' and the 'position' entry seems to
be abandonned ;-)) or we could use some unused entry (mem_info?)
and create some union.
