IIUC, we will need this patch to not to break the interpreting data
on a different endian machine. Data collected from power8 LE/BE
guests with this patchset applied. Kindly correct me if I missed
your question here.
With this patchset applied, perf.data from a power8 BigEndian guest:
==============================================================
$ sudo ./perf record -d -e mem_access ls
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.007 MB perf.data (8 samples) ]
$ sudo ./perf report --mem-mode --stdio
