Subject: [PATCH v4 0/5] tracing/hist: Add percentage histogram suffixes

Hi,

Here is the 4th version of .percent and .graph suffixes for histogram
trigger to show the value in percentage and in bar-graph respectively.

I've rebased on Tom's hitcount patch[1/5] on the series and added a patch
for supressing display of hitcount[5/5] in this version.

This will help us to check the trend of the histogram instantly
without any post processing tool.

Here shows an example of the percentage and the bar graph of
the hitcount of the running tasks.

  # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
  # echo hist:keys=pid:vals=hitcount.percent,hitcount.graph:sort=pid > \
        events/sched/sched_stat_runtime/trigger
  # sleep 10
  # cat events/sched/sched_stat_runtime/hist
 # event histogram
 #
 # trigger info: hist:keys=pid:vals=hitcount.percent,hitcount.graph:sort=pid:size=2048 [active]
 #

 { pid:         14 } hitcount (%):   4.68  hitcount: ###                 
 { pid:         16 } hitcount (%):  17.18  hitcount: ###########         
 { pid:         57 } hitcount (%):   7.81  hitcount: #####               
 { pid:         61 } hitcount (%):  31.25  hitcount: ####################
 { pid:         70 } hitcount (%):   4.68  hitcount: ###                 
 { pid:         77 } hitcount (%):   1.56  hitcount: #                   
 { pid:        145 } hitcount (%):  18.75  hitcount: ############        
 { pid:        151 } hitcount (%):   9.37  hitcount: ######              
 { pid:        152 } hitcount (%):   4.68  hitcount: ###

Of course if you explicitly specify the hitcount, it can show the
hitcount as below;

  # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
  # echo hist:keys=pid:vals=hitcount,runtime:sort=pid > \
        events/sched/sched_stat_runtime/trigger
  # sleep 10
  # cat events/sched/sched_stat_runtime/hist
 # event histogram
 #
 # trigger info: hist:keys=pid:vals=hitcount,runtime:sort=pid:size=2048 [active]
 #

 { pid:         14 } hitcount:          2  runtime:     304876
 { pid:         16 } hitcount:          8  runtime:     300574
 { pid:         26 } hitcount:          2  runtime:      15578
 { pid:         32 } hitcount:          2  runtime:     219186
 { pid:         57 } hitcount:          3  runtime:     506003
 { pid:         61 } hitcount:         20  runtime:    1681473
 { pid:         69 } hitcount:          3  runtime:     201785
 { pid:         70 } hitcount:          4  runtime:     360608
 { pid:         77 } hitcount:          8  runtime:    4146935
 { pid:        145 } hitcount:         13  runtime:    7537994
 { pid:        155 } hitcount:          4  runtime:    2511937
 { pid:        156 } hitcount:          2  runtime:    1398886
