[PATCH 0/1] perf stat: Add support to print counts for fixed times

[ufo19890607]

From: yuzhoujian <yuzhoujian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Introduce a new option to print counts for fixed number of times
and update perf-stat documentation accordingly.

Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat.

	$perf stat -I 1000 --times-print 2 -e cycles -a
	#           time             counts unit events
	     1.002827089         93,884,870      cycles
             2.004231506         56,573,446      cycles

We can just print the counts for several times with this newly introduced
option. The usage of it is a little like vmstat.

        $ vmstat -n 1 2 
procs -----------memory---------- ---swap-- -----io---- -system-- ------cpu-----
