Subject: [PATCH 4.9 076/101] perf intel-pt: Fix sync_switch INTEL_PT_SS_NOT_TRACING

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@...el.com>

commit dbcb82b93f3e8322891e47472c89e63058b81e99 upstream.

sync_switch is a facility to synchronize decoding more closely with the
point in the kernel when the context actually switched.

In one case, INTEL_PT_SS_NOT_TRACING state was not correctly
transitioning to INTEL_PT_SS_TRACING state due to a missing case clause.
Add it.
