perf lock contention: Add --lock-cgroup option
The --lock-cgroup option shows lock contention stats break down by cgroups. Add LOCK_AGGR_CGROUP mode and use it instead of use_cgroup field. $ sudo ./perf lock con -ab --lock-cgroup sleep 1 contended total wait max wait avg wait cgroup 8 15.70 us 6.34 us 1.96 us / 2 1.48 us 747 ns 738 ns /user.slice/.../app.slice/app-gnome-google\x2dchrome-6442.scope 1 848 ns 848 ns 848 ns /user.slice/.../session.slice/org.gnome.Shell@x11.service 1 220 ns 220 ns 220 ns /user.slice/.../session.slice/pipewire-pulse.service For now, the cgroup mode only works with BPF (-b). Committer notes: Remove -g as it is used in the other tools with a clear meaning of collect/show callchains. As agreed with Namhyung off list.
