The -S/--callstack-filter is to limit display entries having the given
string in the callstack (not only in the caller in the output).
The following example shows lock contention results if the callstack
has 'net' substring somewhere. Note that the caller '__dev_queue_xmit'
does not match to it, but it has 'inet6_csk_xmit' in the callstack.
This applies even if you don't use -v option to show the full callstack.
$ sudo ./perf lock con -abv -S net sleep 1
...
