Interpretation of 'union perf_mem_data_src' by perf_mem__lvl_scnprintf()
is non-intuitive. For ex, it ignores 'mem_lvl' when 'mem_hops' is set
but considers it otherwise. It prints both 'mem_lvl_num' and 'mem_lvl'
when 'mem_hops' is not set.
Refactor this function such that it behaves more intuitively: Use new
API 'mem_lvl_num'|'mem_remote'|'mem_hops' if 'mem_lvl_num' contains
value other than PERF_MEM_LVLNUM_NA. Otherwise, fallback to old API
'mem_lvl'. Since new API has no way to indicate MISS, use it from old
api, otherwise don't club old and new APIs while parsing as well as
printing.

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 Restructured Text 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.
