Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo fec9cbd15b perf hists: Print number of samples, not the period sum
So that we match the header where we state the number of events with the
"Samples" column when using 'perf report -n/--show-nr-samples':

 [root@emilia ~]# perf record -a sleep 1
 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
 [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.111 MB perf.data (~4860 samples) ]
 [root@emilia ~]# perf report --stdio --show-nr-samples
 # Events: 11  cycles
 #
 # Overhead  Samples        Command       Shared Object                        Symbol
 # ........ ..........  ...........  ..................  ............................
 #
     16.65%          1        sleep  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] unmap_vmas
     16.10%          1         perf  libpthread-2.12.so  [.] __pthread_cleanup_push_defer
     15.79%          2         perf  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] format_decode

      7.55%          1        sleep  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] prepare_exec_creds
      6.00%          1         perf  [jbd2]              [k] start_this_handle
      5.29%          1         perf  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] seq_read
      4.75%          1         perf  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] get_pid_task
      4.30%          1         perf  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore
