It'd be useful to filter other than the current aggregation mode. For
example, users may want to see callstacks for specific locks only. Or
they may want tasks from a certain callstack.
The tracepoints already collected the information but it needs to check
the condition again when processing the event. And it needs to change
BPF to allow the key combinations.
The lock contentions on 'rcu_state' spinlock can be monitored:
$ sudo perf lock con -abv -L rcu_state sleep 1
...

The -l/--lock-addr option is to implement per-lock-instance contention
stat using LOCK_AGGR_ADDR. It displays lock address and optionally
symbol name if exists.

Accessing BPF maps should use the same data types. Add bpf_skel/lock_data.h
to define the common data structures. No functional changes.
Committer notes:
Fixed contention_key.stack_id missing rename to contention_key.stack_or_task_id.
