Subject: [PATCH V18 3/9] drivers: perf: arm_pmu: Add infrastructure for branch stack sampling
In order to support the Branch Record Buffer Extension (BRBE), we need to
extend the arm_pmu framework with some basic infrastructure for branch
stack sampling which arm_pmu drivers can opt-in to using. Subsequent
patches will use this to add support for BRBE in the PMUv3 driver.
With BRBE, the hardware records branches into a hardware FIFO, which will
be sampled by software when perf events overflow. A task may be context-
switched an arbitrary number of times between overflows, and to avoid
losing samples we need to save the current records when a task is context-
switched out. To do these we'll need to use the pmu::sched_task() callback,
and we'll also need to allocate some per-task storage space via event flag
PERF_ATTACH_TASK_DATA.
