[PATCH 59/85] perf data: Fix perf.data documentation for HEADER_CPU_TOPOLOGY

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

The 'die' info isn't in the same array as core and socket ids, and we
missed the 'dies' string list, that comes right after the 'core' +
'socket' id variable length array, followed by the VLA for the dies.
