tracing: Show sample std dev in function profiling
...
When combined with function graph tracing the ftrace function profiler
also prints the average run time of functions. While this gives us some
good information, it doesn't tell us anything about the variance of the
run times of the function. This change prints out the s^2 sample
standard deviation alongside the average.
This change adds one entry to the profile record structure. This
increases the memory footprint of the function profiler by 1/3 on a
32-bit system, and by 1/5 on a 64-bit system when function graphing is
enabled, though the memory is only allocated when the profiler is turned
on. During the profiling, one extra line of code adds the squared
calltime to the new record entry, so this should not adversly affect
performance.
Note that the square of the sample standard deviation is printed because
there is no sqrt implementation for unsigned long long in the kernel.
