Andi Kleen (2): perf stat: Fix --delay option in man page perf record: Add --initial-delay option

Hm, so we now have two options that do something similar, one named --delay, the other --initial-delay? That looks rather inconsistent.

Furthermore, it looks silly to rename things --initial-delay just to preserve a rarely used option, --no-delay. Instead the better option would be to rename --no-delay to --no-buffering, and use --delay and use it consistently within the tools.

Thanks,
