perf session: Make events_stats u64 to avoid overflow on 32-bit arches
Pekka Enberg reported weird percentages in perf report. It
turns out we are overflowing a 32-bit variables in struct
events_stats on 32-bit architectures.
Before:
[acme@ana linux-2.6-tip]$ perf report -i pekka.perf.data 2> /dev/null | head -10
