    Subject[PATCH 4.5 177/200] perf stat: Document --detailed option
    Date
    4.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

    ------------------

    From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>

    commit f594bae08183fb6b57db55387794ece3e1edf6f6 upstream.

    I'm surprised this remained undocumented since at least 2011. And it is
    actually a very useful switch, as Steve and I came to realize recently.

    Add the text from

    2cba3ffb9a9d ("perf stat: Add -d -d and -d -d -d options to show more CPU events")

    which added the incrementing aspect to -d.
