perf report fails to add valid additional fields with -F when
used with branch or mem modes. Fix it.
Before patch:
$ perf record -b
$ perf report -b -F +srcline_from --stdio
Error:
Invalid --fields key: `srcline_from'
After patch:
$ perf report -b -F +srcline_from --stdio
# Samples: 8K of event 'cycles'
# Event count (approx.): 8784
...
Committer notes:
There was an inversion: when looking at branch stack dimensions (keys)
it was checking if the sort mode was 'mem', not 'branch'.
Fixes: aa6b3c9923 ("perf report: Make -F more strict like -s")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
