mmap_lock: add a histogram structure to struct mm_struct
Subsystems (2)
PATCH v2 3/7 mmap_lock: add a histogram structure to struct mm_struct
This histogram will be used to measure lock acquisition latency, when the acquisition is contended. Cases where we acquire the lock immediately with no contention are recorded as "0" (to avoid incurring the cost of really computing the time, while retaining the ability to get an accurate total lock acquisition count).
