David Ahern 2a865bd8dd perf kmem: Add option to specify time window of interest
Add option to allow user to control analysis window. e.g., collect data
for time window and analyze a segment of interest within that window.

Committer notes:

Testing it:

  # perf kmem record usleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 1.540 MB perf.data (2049 samples) ]
  # perf evlist
  kmem:kmalloc
  kmem:kmalloc_node
  kmem:kfree
  kmem:kmem_cache_alloc
  kmem:kmem_cache_alloc_node
  kmem:kmem_cache_free
  # Tip: use 'perf evlist --trace-fields' to show fields for tracepoint events
  #
  # # Use 'perf script' to get a first approach, select a chunk for then using
  # # with 'perf kmem stat --time'
  #
  # perf script | tail -15
