Subject: [PATCH v7 0/8] perf cs-etm: Add support for sample flags

This patch seris adds support for sample flags so can facilitate perf
to print sample flags for branch instruction.

Patch 0001 is used to save last branch information in packet structure,
this includes instruction type, subtype and condition flag to help
making decision for which branch instruction it is.  It passes related
information from decoder layer to cs-etm.c, so we use cs-etm.c as a
central place to set sample flags.

Patch 0002 is used to set sample flags for instruction range packet.

Patch 0003 is used to set sample flags for trace discontinuity packet.

Patches 0004/0005/0006 are preparation for exception packet handling:
Patch 0004 addes exception number in packet; pacth 0005/0006 is to use
traceID/metadata tuple to access metadata pointer based on traceID, this
can help decide if the CPU is connected with ETMv3 or ETMv4, ETMv3 and
ETMv4 have totally different definition for exception numbers.

Patch 0007 sets sample flags for exception packet; patch 0008 support
sample flags for exception return packet.

This patch set is applied on the acme's perf core branch with the latest
commit bdec77cfe58d ("Merge remote-tracking branch 'tip/perf/urgent'
into perf/core").

This patch set has been verified for x86 and arm64 perf building and
also is verified with below command:

Before:

  # perf script -F,-time,+flags -k vmlinux

Changes from v6:
* Addressed Mathieu's suggestion for patch 0005, refined its commit log
  and comment and fixed cs_etm__get_cpu() definitions in header file;
  also tested with perf for Arm and x86 buildings.
* Added Mathieu's review tags.

Changes from v5:
* Addressed Rob's suggestion to add specification info for exception
  number encoding;
* Added Rob's review tag in patch 0007.

Changes from v4:
* Fixed typos in comments, and removed redundant info from commit log;
* Addressed Mathieu's suggestion to add helper functions for metadata
  fields (CS_ETM_CPU and CS_ETM_MAGIC) accessing;
* Addressed Mathieu's suggestion to include headers with alphabetical
  order.

Changes from v3:
* Fixed typos in commit logs;
* Rearranged fields in cs_etm_packet by grouping with same variable
  types;
* Fixed ETMv4 exception number which pointed by Mike;
* Fixed ETMv4 SVC / SMC / HVC in the same CALL, by checking svc
  instruction to distinguish them;
* Refine ETMv4 return exception packet handling.

Changes from v2:
* Addressed Mathieu's suggestion to split one big patch to 3 small
  patches for setting sample flags, one is for instruction range
  packet, one is for discontinuity packet and one is for exception
  packet.
* Added supporting for ETMv3 exception packet.
* Followed Mathieu's suggestion to move all sample flags handling
  from decoder layer to cs-etm.c, thus it has enough info to set flags
  based on trace context in single place.

Changes from v1:
* Moved exception packets handling patches into patch series 'perf
  cs-etm: Correct packets handling'.
* Added sample flags fixing up for TRACE_OFF packet.
* Created a new function which is used to maintain flags fixing up.
