Subject: perf evlist: Clarify sterror_mmap variable names
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e5d4a290da5366c397653c47c3e869a67b1bfa07;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

perf evlist: Clarify sterror_mmap variable names

Prep patch for doing further checks like when the number of pages that
is being attempted is actually below /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb but
the operation fails because the user doesn't have CAP_IPC_LOCK.
