The patchset seems to work as expected, I get the number of dropped
events and the percentage, of course if I let it run too long, I get
unknown number.
Tested on a 128 cores arm64 box with -p100, known to miss events:

run for 5s
4611870 (24.12%) events missed, results might not be accurate

run for 1m
104653605 (45.44%) events missed, results might not be accurate

run for 5m
539717695 (46.85%) events missed, results might not be accurate

run for 10m
1098569155 (47.68%) events missed, results might not be accurate

run for 1h
6749574550 (48.83%) events missed, results might not be accurate
