Namhyung Kim bbf006d6d1 perf annotate: Add --code-with-type option.
This option is to show data type info in the regular (code) annotation.
It tries to find data type for each (memory) instruction in the
function.  It'd be useful to see function-level memory access pattern
and also to debug the data type profiling result.

The output would be added at the end of the line and have "# data-type:"
prefix.

For now, it only works with --stdio mode for simplicity.  I can work on
enabling it for TUI later.

  $ perf annotate --stdio --code-with-type

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 reStructuredText 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.
