When bootgraph.pl parses a file, it gives one row
for each initcall's pid. But only few of them will
be displayed => the longest.
This patch corrects it by giving only a rows for pids
which have initcalls that will be displayed.

When optimizing the kernel boot time, it's very valuable to visualize
what is going on at which time. In addition, with the fastboot asynchronous
initcall level, it's very valuable to see which initcall gets run where
and when.
This patch adds a script to turn a dmesg into a SVG graph (that can be
shown with tools such as InkScape, Gimp or Firefox) and a small change
to the initcall code to print the PID of the thread calling the initcall
(so that the script can work out the parallelism).
