[PATCH v8 1/3] perf annotate: Show raw form for jump instruction with indirect target

From: Ravi Bangoria
Date: Mon Dec 05 2016 - 10:59:25 EST


For jump instructions that does not include target address as direct
operand, show the original disassembled line for them. This is needed
for certain powerpc jump instructions that use target address in a
register (such as bctr, btar, ...).

Before:
ld r12,32088(r12)
mtctr r12
v bctr ffffffffffffca2c
std r2,24(r1)
addis r12,r2,-1

After:
ld r12,32088(r12)
mtctr r12
v bctr
std r2,24(r1)
addis r12,r2,-1

Changes in v8:
- v7: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/9/21/436
- Rebase to acme/perf/core
- No logical changes. (Cross arch annotate patches are in. This patch
is for hardening annotate for powerpc.)
