Namhyung Kim b4a7eff93c perf lock contention: Add -Y/--type-filter option
The -Y/--type-filter option is to filter the result for specific lock
types only.  It can accept comma-separated values.  Note that it would
accept type names like one in the output.  spinlock, mutex, rwsem:R and
so on.

For RW-variant lock types, it converts the name to the both variants.
In other words, "rwsem" is same as "rwsem:R,rwsem:W".  Also note that
"mutex" has two different encoding - one for sleeping wait, another for
optimistic spinning.  Add "mutex-spin" entry for the lock_type_table so
that we can add it for "mutex" under the table.

Committer notes:

Make get_type_flag() return UINT_MAX for error instad of -1UL, as that
function returns 'unsigned int' and we store the value on a 'unsigned
int' 'flags' variable which makes clang unhappy:

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
