The struct perf_evsel_config_term::val is a union which contains fields 'callgraph', 'drv_cfg' and 'branch' as string pointers. This leads to the complex code logic for handling every type's string separately, and it's hard to release string as a general way. This patch refactors the structure to add a common field 'str' in the 'val' union as string pointer and remove the other three fields 'callgraph', 'drv_cfg' and 'branch'. Without passing field name, the patch simplifies the string handling with macro ADD_CONFIG_TERM_STR() for string pointer assignment. This patch fixes multiple warnings of line over 80 characters detected by checkpatch tool.

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.
