From: Changbin Du <[email protected]> If we always insert 'overhead' and 'overhead_children' as sort keys, this make it impossible to sort as overhead (which displayed as Self) first.Ths will be a problem if the data is collected with call-graph enabled. Then we never can sort the result as self-overhead on this data. And sometimes the data is hard to collect.
This patch fix this by only insert overhead && overhead_children when no overhead* field given.
