This work is based on work by Daniel Wagner. A few tracepoints are added
at the end of the critical section. With the hist trigger in place, the
hist trigger plots may be generated, with per-cpu breakdown of events
captured. It is based on linux kernel's event infrastructure.

The following filter(s) may be used

'hist:key=latency.log2:val=hitcount:sort=latency'
'hist:key=cpu,latency:val=hitcount:sort=latency if cpu==1'
'hist:key=common_pid.execname'

This captures only the latencies introduced by disabled irqs and
preemption. Additional per process data has to be captured to calculate
the effective latencies introduced for individual processes.

Initial work - latency.patch
