Subject: [PATCH v9 0/3] perf: cs-etm: Update perf to handle new Coresight Trace ID

The original method for allocating trace source ID values to sources was
to use a fixed algorithm for CPU based sources of (cpu_num * 2 + 0x10).
The STM was allocated ID 0x1.

This mechanism is broken for systems with more than 47 cores.

The kernel related patches the provide a fixed Trace ID allocation mechanism
are now upstreamed.

This patchset updates the perf code to handle the changes to the trace ID
notification mechanism that now uses the PERF_RECORD_AUX_OUTPUT_HW_ID
packet to set Trace ID in the perf ETM decoders.

Applies and test oo perf/core

Changes since v8:
1. Fix build issues
2. Fix implicit function problem

Changes since v7:
Split from original patchset [1] to be sent separately as kernel related
patches are now upstream.
