Stephane Eranian 3090ffb5a2 perf: Disable PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 support ... For now, we disable the extended MMAP record support (MMAP2). We have identified cases where it would not report the correct mapping information, clone(VM_CLONE) but with separate pids. We will revisit the support once we find a solution for this case. The patch changes the kernel to return EINVAL if attr->mmap2 is set. The patch also modifies the perf tool to use regular PERF_RECORD_MMAP for synthetic events and it also prevents the tool from requesting attr->mmap2 mode because the kernel would reject it. The support will be revisited once the kenrel interface is updated. In V2, we reduce the patch to the strict minimum. In V3, we avoid calling perf_event_open() with mmap2 set because we know it will fail and require fallback retry.
