The patch adds unit aggregation during evsel merge the aggregated uncore
counters. Change the name of the column to `ctrs` and `counters` for
json mode.
Tested on a 2-socket machine with SNC3, uncore_imc_[0-11] and
cpumask="0,120"
Before:
perf stat -e clockticks -I 1000 --per-socket
# time socket cpus counts unit events
1.001085024 S0 1 9615386315 clockticks
1.001085024 S1 1 9614287448 clockticks

Do we need to change the test?
https://web.git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools-next.git/tree/tools/perf/tests/shell/lib/perf_json_output_lint.py?h=perf-tools-next#n48
I think we can also document the value in the man page:
https://web.git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools-next.git/tree/tools/perf/Documentation/perf-stat.txt?h=perf-tools-next#n637
I think because it was ambiguous before we hadn't done this.
Thanks,
Ian
