Corey noticed that ioctl()s on grouped counters didn't work on the whole group. This extends the ioctl() interface to take a second argument that is interpreted as a flags field. We then provide PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP to toggle the behaviour. Having this flag gives the greatest flexibility, allowing you to individually enable/disable/reset counters in a group, or all together.
