so you have multiple bugs here, please fix one per patch, i.e. if using
--show-total-period the header should not be "Percent".

Then, you need a patch to introduce that "struct sym_sample" and use it,
but please rename it to "struct sym_hist_entry".

You can do it and just update the sym_hist_entry->period field, before
the change to pass 'struct sample' around.

That disasm__calc_percent() function could receive a pointer to a struct
sym_hist_entry instead of two pointers.

Small, self contained patches that do one thing make reviewing easier,
by yourself and others.

Please give this a try, if you didn't understand something here I can do
it for you, as this needs doing to fix real bugs.

Thanks,

- Arnaldo
