So I stopped at the patch just before the one introducing this problem,
i.e. now I have:

[acme@seventh perf]$ git log --oneline -10
5100c2b77049 (HEAD -> perf/core, five/perf/core, acme/perf/core) perf header: Add check for unexpected use of reserved membrs in event attr
1d2fc2bd7c1c perf evsel: Support PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX
1fa65c5092da perf tools: Add hw_idx in struct branch_stack
6339998d22ec tools headers UAPI: Update tools's copy of linux/perf_event.h
401d61cbd4d4 tools lib traceevent: Remove extra '\n' in print_event_time()
76ce02651dab libperf: Add counting example
dabce16bd292 perf annotate: Get rid of annotation->nr_jumps
357a5d24c471 perf llvm: Add debug hint message about missing kernel-devel package
1af62ce61cd8 perf stat: Show percore counts in per CPU output
7982a8985150 tools lib api fs: Move cgroupsfs_find_mountpoint()
[acme@seventh perf]$

Please continue from there, I'll process some other patchsets,

Thanks,
