Hi Ilpo,

Perf event handling has functions that are the sole caller of another perf event handling related function:
- reset_enable_llc_perf() calls perf_event_open_llc_miss()
- reset_enable_llc_perf() calls ioctl_perf_event_ioc_reset_enable()
- measure_llc_perf() calls get_llc_perf()
Remove the extra layer of calls to make the code easier to follow by moving the code into the calling function.
In addition, converts print_results_cache() unsigned long parameter to __u64 that matches the type coming from perf.
Is this referring to work from previous patch?

I understand you just copied the code here ... but it is not clear to me why this particular error handling deserves a ctrlc_handler().

I expected "bm_pid" to reflect a "benchmark pid" that is not unique to the child. Are both parent and child not running the benchmark?
Missing doc of a parameter here.

"things like cache misses" is vague. The function's name still contains "llc" which makes me think it is not quite generic yet.

I am not able to tell where this close() moved from.
