perf kmem: Show warning when trying to run stat without record
Sometimes one can mistakenly run 'perf kmem stat' without running 'perf kmem record' before or with a different configuration like recording --slab and stat --page. Show a warning message like the one below to inform the user: # perf kmem stat --page --caller No page allocation events found. Have you run 'perf kmem record --page'?
