4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ilya Pronin <ipronin@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 40c21898ba5372c14ef71717040529794a91ccc2 upstream. When printing stats in CSV mode, 'perf stat' appends extra separators when a counter is not supported: <not supported>,,L1-dcache-store-misses,mesos/bd442f34-2b4a-47df-b966-9b281f9f56fc,0,100.00,,,, Which causes a failure when parsing fields. The numbers of separators should be the same for each line, no matter if the counter is or not supported.
