Subject: [PATCH 2/2] perf intel-pt: Fix MTC timestamp calculation for large MTC periods

The MTC packet provides a 8-bit slice of CTC which is related to TSC by the
TMA packet, however the TMA packet only provides the lower 16 bits of CTC.
If mtc_shift > 8 then some of the MTC bits are not in the CTC provided by
the TMA packet. Fix-up the last_mtc calculated from the TMA packet by
copying the missing bits from the current MTC assuming the least difference
between the two, and that the current MTC comes after last_mtc.
