And you are not going to do:

enum perf_branch_sample_type_shift {
...
PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_CALL_STACK_SHIFT = 10
PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_MAX_SHIFT
};

PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_CALL_STACK = 1 << PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_CALL_STACK_SHIFT

Unless you're telling you are not going to add a mapping for
PERF_SAMPLE_CALL_STACK to the
lbr_sel_map[]?
