perf tools: Fix -x/--exclude-other option for report command
Currently we have symbol_conf.exclude_other being set as true every time so the -x/--exclude-other has nothing to do. Also we have no way to see the data with symbol_conf.exclude_other being false which is useful sometimes. Fixing it by making symbol_conf.exclude_other false by default. 1) Example without -x option: $ perf report -i perf.data.delete -p perf_session__delete -s parent + 99.91% [other] + 0.08% perf_session__delete + 0.00% perf_session__delete_dead_threads + 0.00% perf_session__delete_threads 2) Example with -x option: $ ./perf report -i perf.data.delete -p perf_session__delete -s parent -x + 96.22% perf_session__delete + 1.89% perf_session__delete_dead_threads + 1.89% perf_session__delete_threads In Example 1) we get the sorted out data together with the rest "[other]". This could help us estimate how much time we spent in the sorted data. In Example 2) the total is just the sorted data.
