    yes, sorry, I shouldn't have been so grumpy about it.

    After spending 45 minutes digging through the kernel source and other
    documentation it all makes sense now. The existing manpage even does a
    mildly accurate job of explaining the situation. It's just I have enough
    trouble keeping up with the large number of recent perf related patches
    without having to spend a lot of time decoding cryptic Changelogs.
