Functions that were calling xzalloc also returned -1 when, for other
reasons, it could fail, and the calleds are coping with failures, so
stop using die() and xzalloc().

That could leave filedescriptors open and leak memory. Also stop using
xmalloc, use malloc and handle results just like other error cases in
the same routine that used it.

Without the bloated cplus_demangle from binutils, i.e building with:
$ make NO_DEMANGLE=1 O=~acme/git/build/perf -j3 -C tools/perf/ install
Before:
text data bss dec hex filename
471851 29280 4025056 4526187 45106b /home/acme/bin/perf
After:
[acme@doppio linux-2.6-tip]$ size ~/bin/perf
text data bss dec hex filename
446886 29232 4008576 4484694 446e56 /home/acme/bin/perf
So its a 5.3% size reduction in code, but the interesting part is in the git
diff --stat output:
19 files changed, 20 insertions(+), 1909 deletions(-)
If we ever need some of the things we got from git but weren't using, we just
have to go to the git repo and get fresh, uptodate source code bits.

It is hard to read very large numbers so provide an option to perf stat
to separate thousands using a separator. The patch leverages the locale
support of stdio. You need to set your LC_NUMERIC appropriately, for
instance LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF8. You need to pass -B to activate this
feature. This way existing scripts parsing the output do not need to be
changed. Here is an example.
$ perf stat noploop 2

Since we can now assume there is only a single writer
to each buffer, we can remove per-cpu lock thingy and
use a simply nest-count to the same effect.
This removes the need to disable IRQs.

Since we now have working per-task-per-cpu events for
a while, disallow mmap() on per-task inherited
events. Those things were a performance problem
anyway, and doing away with it allows us to optimize
the buffer somewhat by assuming there is only a
single writer.

In case the sampling buffer has no "payload" pages,
nr_pages is 0. The problem is that the error path in
perf_output_begin() skips to a label which assumes
perf_output_lock() has been issued which is not the
case. That triggers a WARN_ON() in
perf_output_unlock().
This patch fixes the problem by skipping
perf_output_unlock() in case data->nr_pages is 0.

That happened for an old perf.data file that had no fake MMAP events for
the kernel modules, but even then it should warn once for each module,
not one time for every symbol in every module not found.

At least on rawhide using -lnewt is not enough if we use SLang routines
directly, so add an explicit -lslang since we use SLang routines.

OPT_SET_INT was renamed to OPT_SET_UINT since the only use in these
tools is to set something that has an enum type, that is builtin
compatible with unsigned int.
Several string constifications were done to make OPT_STRING require a
const char * type.

To avoid problems like the one fixed by Stephane Eranian in 3de29ca, now
we'll got this instead:
bench/sched-messaging.c:259: error: negative width in bit-field ‘<anonymous>’
bench/sched-messaging.c:261: error: negative width in bit-field ‘<anonymous>’
Which is rather cryptic, but is how BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO works, so kernel
hackers should be already used to this.
With it in place found some problems, fixed by changing the affected
variables to sensible types or changed some OPT_INTEGER to OPT_UINTEGER.
Next csets will go thru converting each of the remaining OPT_ so that
review can be made easier by grouping changes per type per patch.
