Subject[PATCH] perf tools: Fix to put caller above callee in children mode
Date
The __hpp__sort_acc() sorts entries using callchain depth in order to
put callers above in children mode. But it assumed the callchain order
was callee-first. Now default (for children) is caller-first so the
order of entries is reverted.

For example, consider following case.

$ perf report --no-children
..l
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ ....... ................... ..........................
#
99.44% a.out a.out [.] main
|
---main
__libc_start_main
_start

Then children mode should show 'start' above '__libc_start_main' since
it's the caller (parent) of the __libc_start_main. But it's reversed:

# Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ ........ ....... ............... .....................
#
99.61% 0.00% a.out libc-2.25.so [.] __libc_start_main
99.61% 0.00% a.out a.out [.] _start
99.54% 99.44% a.out a.out [.] main

This patch fixes it.

# Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol
# ........ ........ ....... ............... .....................
#
99.61% 0.00% a.out a.out [.] _start
99.61% 0.00% a.out libc-2.25.so [.] __libc_start_main
99.54% 99.44% a.out a.out [.] main
