Merge tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.0-2022-08-04' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux

Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

 - Introduce 'perf lock contention' subtool, using new lock contention
   tracepoints and using BPF for in kernel aggregation and then
   userspace processing using the perf tooling infrastructure for
   resolving symbols, target specification, etc.

   Since the new lock contention tracepoints don't provide lock names,
   get up to 8 stack traces and display the first non-lock function
   symbol name as a caller:

    $ perf lock report -F acquired,contended,avg_wait,wait_total

                    Name   acquired  contended     avg wait    total wait
