This patch parses `owner_lock_stat` into a RB tree, enabling ordered
reporting of owner lock statistics with stack traces. It also updates
the documentation for the `-o` option in contention mode, decouples `-o`
from `-t`, and issues a warning to inform users about the new behavior
of `-ov`.
Example output:
$ sudo ~/linux/tools/perf/perf lock con -abvo -Y mutex-spin -E3 perf bench sched pipe

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
