commit a58a057ce65b52125dd355b7d8b0d540ea267a5f upstream.

CBR events can result in a duplicate branch event, because the state
type defaults to a branch. Fix by clearing the state type.

Example: trace 'sleep' and hope for a frequency change

<title>perf intel-pt: Fix FUP packet state</title>

commit 401136bb084fd021acd9f8c51b52fe0a25e326b2 upstream.

While walking code towards a FUP ip, the packet state is
INTEL_PT_STATE_FUP or INTEL_PT_STATE_FUP_NO_TIP. That was mishandled
resulting in the state becoming INTEL_PT_STATE_IN_SYNC prematurely.  The
result was an occasional lost EXSTOP event.

<title>perf intel-pt: Use shared x86 insn decoder</title>

Now that there's a common version of the decoder for all tools, use it
instead of the local copy.

Also use perf's check-headers.sh script to diff the decoder files to
make sure they remain in sync with the kernel version.  Objtool has a
similar check.

Committer notes:

Had to keep this all pointing explicitely to x86 headers/files, i.e.
instead of asm/isnn.h we had to use ../include/asm/insn.h when the files
were in differemt dirs, or just replace "&lt;asm/foo.h&gt;" with "foo.h".

This way we continue to be able to process perf.data files with Intel PT
traces in distros other than x86.

Also fixed up the awk script paths to use $(srcdir)/tools/arch instead
or relative directories so that we keep detached tarballs (make help |
grep perf) working.

For now the include lines in these headers are being ignored so as not
to flag false reports of kernel/tools out of sync.

Remove the last unneeded use of cache.h in a header, we can check where
it is really needed, i.e. we can remove it and be sure that it isn't
being obtained indirectly.

This is an old file, used by now incorrectly in many places, so it was
providing includes needed indirectly, fixup this fallout.

PSB+ provides status information only so the core-to-bus ratio (CBR) in
PSB+ will not have changed from its previous value. However, cater for
the possibility of a another CBR change that gets caught up in the PSB+
anyway.

<title>perf intel-pt: Decoder to output CBR changes immediately</title>

The core-to-bus ratio (CBR) provides the CPU frequency. With branches
enabled, the decoder was outputting CBR changes only when there was a
branch. That loses the correct time of the change if the trace is not in
context (e.g. not tracing kernel space). Change to output the CBR change
immediately.

PEBS data is encoded in Block Item Packets (BIP). Populate a new structure
intel_pt_blk_items with the values and, upon a Block End Packet (BEP),
report them as a new Intel PT sample type INTEL_PT_BLK_ITEMS.
