When adding event groups to the group list, insert them in size order. This performs an insertion sort on the group list. By placing the largest groups at the front of the group list it is possible to see if a larger group contains the same events as a later group. This can make the later group redundant - it can reuse the events from the large group. A later patch will add this sharing.

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.
