The __read_token() function has some duplicated code to handle
internal buffer overflow. Factor them out to new extend_token().
According to the man pages of realloc/free(3), they can handle NULL
pointer input so that it can be ended up to compact the code. Also
handle error path correctly.

On 32 bit systems, a conversion of the trace_printk format string
"%lu" -> "%llu" is intended (similar for %lx etc.) when a trace was
taken on a machine with 64 bit long integers. However, the current
code computes the bogus transformation "%lu" -> "%u". Fix this.
Besides that, the transformation is only required on systems that don't
use 64 bits for long integers natively.

When %pM is used, the arg value must be a 6 byte character that will
be printed as a 6 byte MAC address. But the code does a break over the
main code which updates the current processing arg to point to the
next arg. If there are other print arguments after a %pM, they will be
off by one. The next arg will still be processing the %pM arg.

As a pointer can be converted into a function name, let the filters
work with the function name as well as with the pointer number. If
the comparison expects a string, then convert numbers into functions,
but only when the number is the same size as a long.

As Namhyung Kim pointed, there are confused namings and descriptions of words
"cycle" and "clock" in mem-memset.c and mem-memcpy.c.
With the option "-c" (or "--clock", now renamed as "--cycle"), mem subsystem
measures cost of memset() and memcpy() with cpu-cycles event.
But current mem subsystem source code contains lots of confused variable
namings and descriptions with "clock" (e.g. the variable use_clock). This is a
very bad style because there is another software event named "cpu-clock". This
patch replaces wrong usage of "clock" to "cycle".
v2: modified Documentation/perf-bench.txt for the descriptions of
--cycle option
