The dummy event is mainly used for mmap, the TIME sample is only needed for per-cpu case so that the perf tool can rely on the correct timing for parsing symbols. And the CPU sample is useless for mmap. The BRANCH_STACK sample bit will be always reset for the dummy event in the function evsel__config(), so don't need to repeatedly reset it for Arm SPE specific. So this patch only enables TIME sample for per-cpu mmap.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
