This patch adds a simple post-processing script for the page-allocator-related
trace events. It can be used to give an indication of who the most
allocator-intensive processes are and how often the zone lock was taken
during the tracing period. Example output looks like

find-2840
o pages allocd = 1877
o pages allocd under lock = 1817
o pages freed directly = 9
o pcpu refills = 1078
o migrate fallbacks = 48
- fragmentation causing = 48
- severe = 46
- moderate = 2
- changed migratetype = 7

I like it.
