[PATCH 5/6] perf kmem: Add option to specify time window of interest

From: David Ahern
Date: Fri Nov 25 2016 - 16:41:04 EST


From: David Ahern <dsahern@xxxxxxxxx>

Add option to allow user to control analysis window. e.g., collect data
for time window and analyze a segment of interest within that window.

+ have the format seconds.microseconds. If start is not given (i.e., time
