Intel PT has packets that contain 7-bytes of TSC.  'perf record' adds a
reference TSC to the ITRACE event so that the full TSC is known.

So this is the possibility that you record a perf.data file on x86
recording Intel PT and then take that file to another machine with a
different architecture.  It should still be possible to read the file there.
