Jin Yao 493be70ac3 perf stat: Disable the NMI watchdog message on hybrid
If we run a single workload that only runs on big core, there is always
a ugly message about disabling the NMI watchdog because the atom is not
counted.

Before:

  # ./perf stat true

   Performance counter stats for 'true':

                0.43 msec task-clock                #    0.396 CPUs utilized

               4,094      cpu_core/branch-misses/   #    9.454 M/sec
       <not counted>      cpu_atom/branch-misses/                                       (0.00%)

         0.000000000 seconds sys

  Some events weren't counted. Try disabling the NMI watchdog:
          echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
          perf stat ...
          echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog

  # ./perf stat -e '{cpu_atom/cycles/,msr/tsc/}' true

   Performance counter stats for 'true':

       <not counted>      cpu_atom/cycles/                                              (0.00%)
       <not counted>      msr/tsc/                                                      (0.00%)

         0.001904106 seconds time elapsed

         0.001947000 seconds user
         0.000000000 seconds sys

  Some events weren't counted. Try disabling the NMI watchdog:
          echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
          perf stat ...
          echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
  The events in group usually have to be from the same PMU. Try reorganizing the group.

Now we disable the NMI watchdog message on hybrid, otherwise there
are too many false positives.

After:

  # ./perf stat true

   Performance counter stats for 'true':

                0.79 msec task-clock                #    0.419 CPUs utilized

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
