Right, current DSO, 'k' is equivalent to:

1. Navigate to a kernel map entry
2. Press 'd'

And also to:

1. Navigate to a kernel map entry
2. Press ENTER
3. Navigate to "Zoom into Kernel DSO"
4. Press ENTER

One key versus 2 or four.

I thought kernel hackers would like the convenience, doing:

  perf top + k

To get the main kernel samples looks faster than:

  perf top -e cycles:k

And those are not even equivalent, as cycles:k will show everything in
ring 0, while 'perf top + k' will show just what is in the kernel _and_
in the main kernel map.
