perf event: Fix size of synthesized sample with branch stacks
Synthesizing branch stacks for Intel-PT highlighted an issue where
PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX was assumed to always be set in the
perf_event_attr branch_sample_type. This caused an incorrect size
calculation.
Fix the writing of the nr and hw_idx values during sample event
synthesis by passing the branch_sample_type into the sample size
and synthesis functions. Also update hardware tracers (Intel PT,
ARM SPE, CS-ETM) to retrieve and pass their branch_sample_type
dynamically to prevent payload misalignment.
Fixes: d3f85437ad6a5511 ("perf evsel: Support PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_HW_INDEX")
