Subject: [PATCH v2 0/1] Perf lock improvements

Improvement to command line handling for perf lock info.
---
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/

v2:
* Drop previous "perf lock report: Restore aggregation by caller by
default" patch. Not required for newly collected data with LOCKDEP
tracepoints.
* Display map and thread info (rather than an error) when neither or
both of --map and --thread are specified.

Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] perf lock info: Display both map and thread by default

Change "perf lock info" argument handling to:

Display both map and thread info (rather than an error) when neither are
specified.

Display both map and thread info (rather than just thread info) when
both are requested.

But your change allows both thread and map info to be printed, right?
