tracing/lockdep: report the time waited for a lock

Browse source 
While trying to optimize the new lock on reiserfs to replace
the bkl, I find the lock tracing very useful though it lacks
something important for performance (and latency) instrumentation:
the time a task waits for a lock.

That's what this patch implements:

  bash-4816  [000]   202.652815: lock_contended: lock_contended: &sb->s_type->i_mutex_key
  bash-4816  [000]   202.652819: lock_acquired: &rq->lock (0.000 us)
 <...>-4787  [000]   202.652825: lock_acquired: &rq->lock (0.000 us)
 <...>-4787  [000]   202.652829: lock_acquired: &rq->lock (0.000 us)
  bash-4816  [000]   202.652833: lock_acquired: &sb->s_type->i_mutex_key (16.005 us)

As shown above, the "lock acquired" field is followed by the time
it has been waiting for the lock. Usually, a lock contended entry
is followed by a near lock_acquired entry with a non-zero time waited.
