This patch implements a new option "--total-cycles" which sorts
all blocks by 'Sampled Cycles%'. The 'Sampled Cycles%' is the
percent:
percent = block sampled cycles aggregation / total sampled cycles
Note that, this patch only supports "--stdio" mode.
For example,
perf record -b ./div
perf report --total-cycles --stdio
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.

# Total Lost Samples: 0
#
# Samples: 2M of event 'cycles'
# Event count (approx.): 2753248

v4:
---
1. Use new option '--total-cycles' to replace
'-s total_cycles' in v3.
2. Move block info collection out of block info
printing.
v3:
---
1. Use common function block_info__process_sym to
process the blocks per symbol.
2. Remove the nasty hack for skipping calculation
of column length
3. Some minor cleanup

no need for the 'block_' prefix for the members
also please put this and all the new functions under block_info.c
thanks,
jirka
OK! I will remove the 'block_' prefix for the members in struct
block_report and move the related functions to block_info.c
Thanks
