[PATCH 7/7] perf, tools, stat: Check for frontend stalled for metrics

From: Andi Kleen
Date: Mon Feb 29 2016 - 17:36:51 EST


From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Add an extra check for frontend stalled in the metrics.
This avoids an extra column for the --metric-only case
when the CPU does not support frontend stalled.
