lockstat: human readability tweaks

Present all this fancy new lock statistics information:

'contentions' and 'acquisitions' are the number of such events measured (since
the last reset). The waittime- and holdtime- (min, max, total) numbers are
presented in microseconds.

If there are any contention points, the lock class is presented in the block
format (as i_mutex and tree_lock above), otherwise a single line of output is
presented.

The output is sorted on absolute number of contentions (read + write), this
should get the worst offenders presented first, so that:

 # grep : /proc/lock_stat | head

will quickly show who's bad.

The stats can be reset using:

 # echo 0 > /proc/lock_stat
