We support event unthrottling in breakpoint events. It means that if we have more than sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate/HZ, perf will throttle, ignoring subsequent events until the next tick. So if ptrace exceeds this max rate, it will omit events, which breaks the ptrace determinism that is supposed to report every triggered breakpoints. This is likely to happen if we set sysctl_perf_event_sample_rate to 1. This patch removes support for unthrottling in breakpoint events to break throttling and restore ptrace determinism.
