perf evlist: Improve the strerror_mmap method
Considering the per user locked pages limit, improve the message when a
user uses multiple simultaneous perf mmap calls:
When the request is more than the current maximum:
[acme@ssdandy linux]$ trace -m 128 usleep 1
Error: Operation not permitted.
Hint: Check /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb (516 kB) setting.
Hint: Tried using 516 kB.
Hint: Try 'sudo sh -c "echo 1032 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb"', or
Hint: Try using a smaller -m/--mmap-pages value.
[acme@ssdandy linux]$
And when the limit is less than that:
[acme@ssdandy linux]$ trace -m 512 usleep 1
Error: Operation not permitted.
Hint: Check /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb (2056 kB) setting.
Hint: Tried using 2052 kB.
Hint: Try using a smaller -m/--mmap-pages value.
