As option --host and --guest request no input for it, there should not
be a '=' after them in the man page sources.
And --output expects a filename as the input, so there should be a '='
after it.
This patch removes the needless '=' after --guest and --host, and adds a
'=' after --output in perf-kvm.txt.

As the buildid is read from /sys/kernel/notes, then if we use perf kvm
buildid-list with a perf data file captured by perf kvm record with
--guestkallsyms and --guestmodules, there is no result in output.
This patch add a explanation about it and add a limit of using perf kvm
buildid-list.

Adding possibility to specify mmap size via -m/--mmap-pages
by appending unit size character (B/K/M/G) to the
number, like:
$ perf record -m 8K ls
$ perf record -m 2M ls
The size is rounded up appropriately to follow perf
mmap restrictions.
If no unit is specified the number provides pages as
of now, like:
$ perf record -m 8 ls

Add 'perf kvm stat' support to analyze kvm vmexit/mmio/ioport smartly
Usage:
- kvm stat
run a command and gather performance counter statistics, it is the alias of
perf stat
- trace kvm events:
perf kvm stat record, or, if other tracepoints are interesting as well, we
can append the events like this:
perf kvm stat record -e timer:* -a
If many guests are running, we can track the specified guest by using -p or
--pid, -a is used to track events generated by all guests.
- show the result:
perf kvm stat report
The output example is following:
13005
13059
total 2 guests are running on the host
Then, track the guest whose pid is 13059:
^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.253 MB perf.data.guest (~11065 samples) ]
