perf stat: Enhance option parse error message
Print related option help messages only when it failed to process options. While at it, modify parse_options_usage() to skip usage part so that it can be used for showing multiple option help messages naturally like below: $ perf stat -Bx, ls -B option not supported with -x usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>] -B, --big-num print large numbers with thousands' separators -x, --field-separator <separator> print counts with custom separator Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Enthusiastically-Supported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1383291195-24386-6-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
