mainlining shenanigans
			
		
		| When comparing time stamps in 'perf script' traces it can be annoying to
work with the full perf time stamps.
Add a --reltime option that displays time stamps relative to the trace
start to make it easier to read the traces.
Note: not currently supported for --time. Report an error in this
case.
Before:
  % perf script
      swapper 0 [000] 245402.891216:    1 cycles:ppp: ffffffffa0068814 native_write_msr+0x4 ([kernel.kallsyms])
      swapper 0 [000] 245402.891223:    1 cycles:ppp: ffffffffa0068814 native_write_msr+0x4 ([kernel.kallsyms])
      swapper 0 [000] 245402.891227:    5 cycles:ppp: ffffffffa0068814 native_write_msr+0x4 ([kernel.kallsyms])
      swapper 0 [000] 245402.891231:   41 cycles:ppp: ffffffffa0068816 native_write_msr+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms])
      swapper 0 [000] 245402.891235:  355 cycles:ppp: ffffffffa000dd51 intel_bts_enable_local+0x21 ([kernel.kallsyms])

After:
  % perf script --reltime
      swapper 0 [000]     0.000000:    1 cycles:ppp: ffffffffa0068814 native_write_msr+0x4 ([kernel.kallsyms])
      swapper 0 [000]     0.000006:    1 cycles:ppp: ffffffffa0068814 native_write_msr+0x4 ([kernel.kallsyms])
      swapper 0 [000]     0.000010:    5 cycles:ppp: ffffffffa0068814 native_write_msr+0x4 ([kernel.kallsyms])
      swapper 0 [000]     0.000014:   41 cycles:ppp: ffffffffa0068816 native_write_msr+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms])
      swapper 0 [000]     0.000018:  355 cycles:ppp: ffffffffa000dd51 intel_bts_enable_local+0x21 ([kernel.kallsyms])
      swapper 0 [000]     0.000022: 3084 cycles:ppp: ffffffffa0a0150a end_repeat_nmi+0x48 ([kernel.kallsyms])
Committer notes:
Do not use 'time' as the name of a variable, as this breaks the build on
older glibcs:
  cc1: warnings being treated as errors
  builtin-script.c: In function 'perf_sample__fprintf_start':
  builtin-script.c:691: warning: declaration of 'time' shadows a global declaration
  /usr/include/time.h:187: warning: shadowed declaration is here

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.
