So, the description makes it look like this is just elliminating code
duplication, but then, before we had:

  [acme@jouet linux]$ perf.old stat -I 500 -e instructions,cycles sleep 1
  #           time             counts unit events
       0.500164711            548,376      instructions              #    0.72  insn per cycle                                            
       0.500164711            756,872      cycles                                                      
       1.000405470      <not counted>      instructions             
       1.000405470      <not counted>      cycles                   
       1.000690913            156,623      instructions              #    0.48  insn per cycle                                            
       1.000690913            226,630      cycles                                                      
  [acme@jouet linux]$

And now we have instead:

  [acme@jouet linux]$ perf stat -I 500 -e instructions,cycles sleep 1
  #           time             counts unit events
       0.500173751            555,962      instructions              #    0.77  insn per cycle                                            
       0.500173751            722,964      cycles                                                      
       1.000382613                  0      instructions              #    0.00  insn per cycle                                            
       1.000382613                  0      cycles                                                      
       1.001157068            154,765      instructions              #    0.49  insn per cycle                                            
       1.001157068            223,609      cycles                                                      
  [acme@jouet linux]$ 

So there is a change in behaviour.
