From: Chenggang Qin <chenggang.qin@gmail.com>

While we use "perf top -p 'pid'" to monitor the symbols of specified
processes, some new threads would be created by the monitored processes 
during "perf top" is running. In current version, these new threads and
their symbols cannot be shown.
This patch add ability to show these new threads.
