and this might be what you're looking for.  This is with a different 
random seed than the one I've used for other traces, your patch changes 
the syscall behavior enough that the one I was using before wasn't going 
down the same path.

I can try slapping ftrace on and getting a trace if you want.

I've been using
trace-cmd record -e kmem -e raw_syscalls -p function -l '*perf*' -n 'perf_event_task_tick'

which is a compromise between log size and info, but as you've seen it 
loses useful info, especially all the things in core.c that don't
include *perf*.
