Hello,

I've implemented 'latency' subcommand in the perf ftrace command to
show a histogram of function latency.

To handle new subcommands, the existing functionality is moved to
'trace' subcommand while preserving backward compatibility of not
having a subcommand at all (defaults to 'trace').

The latency subcommand accepts a target (kernel, for now) function
with -T option and shows a histogram like below:

  $ sudo ./perf ftrace latency -a -T mutex_lock sleep 1
  #   DURATION     |      COUNT | GRAPH                                          |

It basically use the function graph tracer to extract the duration of
the function.  But with -b/--use-bpf option, it can use BPF to save
the histogram in the kernel.  For the same function, it gets:

  $ sudo ./perf ftrace latency -a -b -T mutex_lock sleep 1
  #   DURATION     |      COUNT | GRAPH                                          |
