Jin Yao 99150a1faa perf diff: Use hists to manage basic blocks per symbol
The hist__account_cycles() can account cycles per basic block. The basic
block information is saved in cycles_hist structure.

This patch processes each symbol, get basic blocks from cycles_hist and
add the basic block entries to a new hists (in 'struct block_hist').
Using a hists is because we need to compare, sort and print the basic
blocks later.

 v6:
 ---
 Since 'ops' argument is removed from hists__add_entry_block,
 update the code accordingly. No functional change.

 v5:
 ---
 Since now we still carry block_info in 'struct hist_entry'
 we don't need to use our own new/free ops for hist entries.
 And the block_info is released in hist_entry__delete.

 v3:
 ---
 1. In v2, we put block stuffs in 'struct hist_entry', but
 it's not a good design. In v3, we create a new
 'struct block_hist' and cast the 'struct hist_entry' to
 'struct block_hist' in some places, which can avoid adding
 new stuffs in 'struct hist_entry'.

 2. abs() -> labs(), in block_cycles_diff_cmp().

 v2:
 ---
 v1 adds the basic block entries to per data-file hists
 but v2 adds the basic block entries to per symbol hists.
 That is to keep current perf-diff format. Will show the
 result in next patches.

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.
