On idle systems 'perf top' comes up empty by default, because the event
count filter is set to 100.

Reduce it to 5 instead.

Also add an option to limit the number of functions displayed.

perf_counter tools: Add locking to perf top

We need to protect the active_symbols list as two threads change it:
the main thread adding entries to the head and the display thread
decaying entries from any place in the list.

Also related: take a snapshot of syme->count[0] before using it to
calculate the weight and to show the same number used in this calc when
displaying the symbol usage.

Impact: new functionality

This adds add an option to the perfstat mode of kerneltop to scale the
reported counter values according to the fraction of time that each
counter gets to count.  This is invoked with the -l option (I used 'l'
because s, c, a and e were all taken already.)  This uses the new
PERF_RECORD_TOTAL_TIME_{ENABLED,RUNNING} read format options.

With this, we get output like this:

$ ./perfstat -l -e 0:0,0:1,0:2,0:3,0:4,0:5 ./spin

 Performance counter stats for './spin':

     4016072055  CPU cycles           (events)  (scaled from 66.53%)
     2005887318  instructions         (events)  (scaled from 66.53%)
        1762849  cache references     (events)  (scaled from 66.69%)
         165229  cache misses         (events)  (scaled from 66.85%)
     1001298009  branches             (events)  (scaled from 66.78%)
          41566  branch misses        (events)  (scaled from 66.61%)

 Wall-clock time elapsed:  2438.227446 msecs

This also lets us detect when a counter is zero because the counter
never got to go on the CPU at all.  In that case we print <not counted>
rather than 0.
