Please split into two patches.  One is a kernel patch and another is a
tool patch.

Seems it is conflict to set both 'PERF_MEM_SNOOP_NONE' and
'PERF_MEM_SNOOPX_PEER'.

Remove setting 'PERF_MEM_SNOOP_NONE' in this case?

Seems to me, a CPU has L3 cache, would the cluster has a higher level's
cache?

Ditto for the confliction for the two flags 'SNOOP_NONE' and
'SNOOPX_PEER'.

The field 'mem_snoopx' is an extension to the field 'mem_snoop'.

If the field 'mem_snoopx' is set, it is no need to set 'mem_snoop'.
