Daniel Bristot de Oliveira 8fa826b734 trace/hwlat: Implement the mode config option
Provides the "mode" config to the hardware latency detector. hwlatd has
two different operation modes. The default mode is the "round-robin" one,
in which a single hwlatd thread runs, migrating among the allowed CPUs in a
"round-robin" fashion. This is the current behavior.

The "none" sets the allowed cpumask for a single hwlatd thread at the
startup, but skips the round-robin, letting the scheduler handle the
migration.

In preparation to the per-cpu mode.

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 Restructured Text 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.
