Thanks, applied.

I'm thinking about making --no-syscalls the default when 'trace' is
hardlinked to 'perf', i.e. 'perf trace'  remains as it is, but if one
calls 'trace', then --no-syscalls is the default, as after non-syscall
events got supported I find myself using --no-syscalls way too often,
what do you think?

Or perhaps have a 'perf strace' to try to have as much in common with
'strace' in terms of default behaviour, options, etc?
