[PATCH 2/3] perf intel-pt: Fix improved sample timestamp

[Adrian Hunter]

The decoder uses its current timestamp in samples. Usually that is a
timestamp that has already passed, but in some cases it is a timestamp for
a branch that the decoder is walking towards, and consequently hasn't
reached. The intel_pt_sample_time() function decides which is which, but
was not handling TNT packets exactly correctly. In the case of TNT, the
timestamp applies to the first branch, so the decoder must first walk to
that branch. That means intel_pt_sample_time() should return true for TNT,
and this patch makes that change. However, if the first branch is a
non-taken branch (i.e. a 'N'), then intel_pt_sample_time() needs to return
false for subsequent taken branches in the same TNT packet. To handle that,
introduce a new state INTEL_PT_STATE_TNT_CONT to distinguish the cases.

Note that commit 3f04d98e972b5 ("perf intel-pt: Improve sample timestamp")
was also a stable fix and appears, for example, in v4.4 stable tree as
commit a4ebb58fd124 ("perf intel-pt: Improve sample timestamp").
