Yeah, just trying cherry picking it and trying it on an RHEL6.2 kernel
and it didn't work because older kernels don't have
attr.exclude_{guest,host}, so I had to also cherrypick:

[acme@sandy linux]$ git cherry-pick
0c9781280fb672ca09c997df3f14ba506bbdb977
Finished one cherry-pick.
[perf/urgent b5f81a4] perf tools: Handle kernels that don't support attr.exclude_{guest,host}
