John Kacur 35c8cf7b8a rtla/timerlat: Fix histogram report when a cpu count is 0 
commit 01b05fc0e5 upstream.

On short runs it is possible to get no samples on a cpu, like this:

  # rtla timerlat hist -u -T50

  Index   IRQ-001   Thr-001   Usr-001   IRQ-002   Thr-002   Usr-002

  rtla timerlat hit stop tracing
    IRQ handler delay:		(exit from idle)	    48.21 us (91.09 %)
    IRQ latency:						    49.11 us
    Timerlat IRQ duration:				     2.17 us (4.09 %)
    Blocking thread:					     1.01 us (1.90 %)
  	               swapper/2:0        		     1.01 us
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Thread latency:					    52.93 us (100%)

  Max timerlat IRQ latency from idle: 49.11 us in cpu 2

Note, the value 18446744073709551615 is the same as ~0.

Fix this by reporting no results for the min, avg and max if the count
is 0.

RTLA: Real-Time Linux Analysis tools

The rtla meta-tool includes a set of commands that aims to analyze
the real-time properties of Linux. Instead of testing Linux as a black box,
rtla leverages kernel tracing capabilities to provide precise information
about the properties and root causes of unexpected results.

Installing RTLA

RTLA depends on the following libraries and tools:

 - libtracefs
 - libtraceevent

It also depends on python3-docutils to compile man pages.

For development, we suggest the following steps for compiling rtla:

  $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtraceevent.git
  $ cd libtraceevent/
  $ make
  $ sudo make install
  $ cd ..
  $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtracefs.git
  $ cd libtracefs/
  $ make
  $ sudo make install
  $ cd ..
  $ cd $rtla_src
  $ make
  $ sudo make install

For further information, please refer to the rtla man page.
