From 14951f22f1cc8375ead345d2ca08455e91f2152b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Sun, 29 Sep 2013 16:12:54 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "perf symbols: Demangle cloned functions" This reverts commit de95ab53645a2f0015e0f68ee723f18dce2b8b51. Markus Trippelsdorf reported that this commit broke 'perf top': > I just see a gray screen with no text at all.

So lets revert it and re-try the patch in v3.13.
