Leo Yan 60abedb8aa perf test: Introduce script for data symbol testing
The test is designed with a data structure with 64-byte alignment, it
has two fields "data1" and "data2", and other fields are reserved.

Using the "perf mem" command, we can record and report memory samples
for a self-contained workload with 1 second duration.  If no samples are
obtained for the data structure "buf1", it reports failure;  and by
checking the offset in structure "buf1", if the memory samples aren't
for the "data1" and "data2" fields, it means wrong data symbol parsing
and returns failure.

Committer testing:

  [root@quaco ~]# grep -m1 "model name" /proc/cpuinfo
  model name	: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8650U CPU @ 1.90GHz
  [root@quaco ~]#
  [root@quaco ~]# perf test -v "data symbol"

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.
