Subject: [PATCH v9 00/16] perf arm-spe: Refactor decoding & dumping flow

This is patch set v9 for refactoring Arm SPE trace decoding and dumping.

According to comments and suggestions from patch set v8, it squashs the
two patches into single one: "perf arm-spe: Refactor printing string to
buffer" and "perf arm-spe: Consolidate arm_spe_pkt_desc()'s return
value".

In the patch 01/16, it renames the function arm_spe_pkt_snprintf() to
arm_spe_pkt_out_string(), since the function is not the same semantics
with snprintf(), the renaming can avoid confusion.

This patch set is cleanly applied on the top of perf/core branch
with commit 29396cd573da ("perf expr: Force encapsulation on
expr_id_data").

This patch set has been tested on Hisilicon D06 platform with commands
"perf report -D" and "perf script", compared the decoding results
between with this patch set and without this patch set, "diff" tool
shows the result as expected.

I also manually built the patches for arm/arm64/x86_64 and verfied
every single patch can build successfully.


Changes from v8:
- Squashed the two patches "perf arm-spe: Refactor printing string to
  buffer" and "perf arm-spe: Consolidate arm_spe_pkt_desc()'s return
  value" (Dave);
- Fixed the condition for vsnprintf()'s overrun to
  "if ((size_t)ret >= *blen)" (Dave);
- Renamed function arm_spe_pkt_snprintf() to arm_spe_pkt_out_string()
  (Dave/Arnaldo);
- Rebased on the latest perf/core branch.

Changes from v7:
- Changed to pass '&buf_len' for the last call arm_spe_pkt_snprintf() in
  the patch 07/22 (Andre).

Changes from v6:
- Removed the redundant comma from the string in the patch 21/22 "perf
  arm_spe: Decode memory tagging properties" (Dave);
- Refined the return value for arm_spe_pkt_desc(): returns 0 for
  success, otherwise returns non zero for failures; handle error code at
  the end of function arm_spe_pkt_desc(); this is accomplished in the
  new patch 07/22 "perf arm-spe: Consolidate arm_spe_pkt_desc()'s
  return value" (Dave).
