Perf record can switch output. The new output should only store the data after switching. However, in overwrite backward mode, the new output still have the data from old output. That also brings extra overhead. At the end of mmap_read, the position of processed ring buffer is saved in md->prev. Next mmap_read should be end in md->prev if it is not overwriten. That avoids to process duplicate data. However, the md->prev is discarded. So next mmap_read has to process whole valid ring buffer, which probably include the old processed data. Avoid calling backward_rb_find_range() when md->prev is still available.
