Subject: [PATCH tip/locking/core v9 4/6] locking/pvqspinlock: Collect slowpath lock statistics

This patch enables the accumulation of kicking and waiting related
PV qspinlock statistics when the new QUEUED_LOCK_STAT configuration
option is selected. It also enables the collection of data which
enable us to calculate the kicking and wakeup latencies which have
a heavy dependency on the CPUs being used.

The statistical counters are per-cpu variables to minimize the
performance overhead in their updates. These counters are exported
via the sysfs filesystem under the /sys/kernel/qlockstat directory.
When the corresponding sysfs files are read, summation and computing
of the required data are then performed.

The measured latencies for different CPUs are:

	CPU		Wakeup		Kicking
	---		------		-------
	Haswell-EX	63.6us		 7.4us
	Westmere-EX	67.6us		 9.3us

The measured latencies varied a bit from run-to-run. The wakeup
latency is much higher than the kicking latency.

A sample of statistics counts after system bootup (with vCPU
overcommit) was:

pv_hash_hops=1.00
pv_kick_unlock=1148
pv_kick_wake=1146
pv_latency_kick=11040
pv_latency_wake=194840
pv_spurious_wakeup=7
pv_wait_again=4
pv_wait_head=23
pv_wait_node=1129
