perf stat: Enable counters when collecting process-wide or system-wide data
Command 'perf stat' doesn't enable counters when collecting an existing (by -p) process or system-wide statistics. Fix the issue. Change the condition of fork/exec subcommand. If there is a subcommand parameter, perf always forks/execs it. The usage example is: # perf stat -a sleep 10 So this command could collect statistics for 10 seconds precisely. User still could stop it by CTRL+C. Without the new capability, user could only use CTRL+C to stop it without precise time clock. Another issue is 'perf stat -a' consumes 100% time of a full single logical cpu. It has a bad impact on running workload. Fix it by adding a sleep(1) in the while(!done) loop in function run_perf_stat.
