Namhyung Kim 79a3371bdf perf bench sched pipe: Add -G/--cgroups option
The -G/--cgroups option is to put sender and receiver in different
cgroups in order to measure cgroup context switch overheads.

Users need to make sure the cgroups exist and accessible.  The following
example should the effect of this change.  Please don't forget taskset
before the perf bench to measure cgroup switches properly.  Otherwise
each task would run on a different CPU and generate cgroup switches
regardless of this change.

  # perf stat -e context-switches,cgroup-switches \
  > taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 10000 > /dev/null

   Performance counter stats for 'taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 10000':

              20,001      context-switches
                   2      cgroup-switches
