[PATCH V2 RESEND] perf stat: Fix the ratio comments of miss-events

From: Qi Liu
Date: Wed Sep 16 2020 - 14:47:51 EST


Perf stat displays miss ratio of L1-dcache, L1-icache, dTLB cache,
iTLB cache and LL-cache. Take L1-dcache for example, miss ratio is
caculated as "L1-dcache-load-misses/L1-dcache-loads". So
"of all L1-dcache hits" is unsuitable to describe it, and
"of all L1-dcache accesses" seems better.

The comments of L1-icache, dTLB cache, iTLB cache and LL-cache are
fixed in the same way.
