[RFC 00/20] perf: Finish sampling commands when events are closed

[Jiri Olsa]

hi,
adding support to quit sampling commands:
  record,top,trace,kvm stat live

when all the monitored events are closed, like following perf
command will now exit when monitored process (pid 1234) exits:

  $ perf record -p 1234

I added independent poller object to handle basic polling
tasks. I had to factor some parts, so sending this as RFC,
because I'm pretty sure I broke something else ;-)

The patch#1 is kernel change, which is needed for the
patchset to work properly. The current behavior stays
without this kernel change.

The code is based on latest Arnaldo's perf/core and
following kernel change:
  http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=140715910417130&w=2

The patchset is also reachable in here:
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jolsa/perf.git
  perf/core_poll

thanks for comments,
jirka
