Thanks Ian.

Hi Arnaldo,

I have re-posted the patch 2 ( in this series ) separately in new patchset here :
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-perf-users/20230116050131.17221-2-atrajeev@linux.vnet.ibm.com/

Ack from Ian is for Patch 1. Shall I rebase to upstream and post this patch 1 separately ?

Thanks
Athira
