perf lock record: improve message when tracepoints are not enabled
If CONFIG options required for perf-lock are not enabled then the corresponding tracepoints will not be enabled. Currently, the message to the user is: $ perf lock record -a -- sleep 1 invalid or unsupported event: 'lock:lock_acquire' Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Improve the message with a suggestion on which CONFIG options are needed: $ perf lock record -a -- sleep 1 tracepoint lock:lock_acquire is not enabled. Are CONFIG_LOCKDEP and CONFIG_LOCK_STAT enabled?
