[PATCH 2/2] perf list: Add usage

From: David Ahern
Date: Wed Oct 30 2013 - 12:15:33 EST


Currently perf list is not very helpful if you forget the syntax:
$ perf list -h

List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):

After:
$ perf list -h

usage: perf list [hw|sw|cache|tracepoint|pmu|event_glob]
