      perf diff: Fix duplicated output column · e9d848cb
      Namhyung Kim authored
      The commit b97511c5 ("perf tools: Add overhead/overhead_children
      keys defaults via string") moved initialization of column headers but it
      missed to check the sort__mode.  As 'perf diff' doesn't call
      perf_hpp__init(), the setup_overhead() also should not be called.
