nit: Please update this comment.

[kaiwang, 2013/01/08 00:51:40]

Done.

   mutable base::Lock lock_;
-  std::map<HistogramBase::Sample, HistogramBase::Count> sample_counts_;
-  HistogramBase::Count redundant_count_;

[Ilya Sherman, 2012/12/29 00:17:30]

Could you remind me of how the redundant count was going to be used, and why
it's no longer relevant?

[kaiwang, 2013/01/08 00:51:40]

redundant_count_ is just a duplicated count to detect memory corruption. It's
already included in SampleMap.
