Boottime - A tool for automatic measurement of kernel and possible boot loader boot time.
The overhead is very low and the results will be found under sysfs/bootime, as well as
detailed results in debugfs under boottime/. The bootgraph* files are compatible with
scripts/bootgraph.pl. The reason for this patch is to provide data (sysfs/boottime)
suitable for automatic testcases as well as help for developers to reduce the boot
time (debugfs).
