perf kmem: Add --live option for current allocation stat
Currently 'perf kmem stat --page' shows total (page) allocation stat by
default, but sometimes one might want to see live (total alloc-only)
requests/pages only. The new --live option does this by subtracting freed
allocation from the stat.
E.g.:
# perf kmem stat --page
SUMMARY (page allocator)
========================
Total allocation requests : 988,858 [ 4,045,368 KB ]
Total free requests : 886,484 [ 3,624,996 KB ]
Total alloc+freed requests : 885,969 [ 3,622,628 KB ]
Total alloc-only requests : 102,889 [ 422,740 KB ]
Total free-only requests : 515 [ 2,368 KB ]
Total allocation failures : 0 [ 0 KB ]
