[PATCH 0/4] perf cs-etm: Track exception level

[James Clark]

Some fixes to support an issue reported by Denis Nikitin where decoding
trace that contains different EL1 and EL2 kernels can crash or go into
an infinite loop because the wrong kernel maps are used for the decode.

This still doesn't support distinguishing guest and host userspace,
we'd still have to fix the timestamps and do a bit more work to
correlate that. And I've removed PERF_RECORD_MISC_HYPERVISOR as a
possible outcome of cs_etm__cpu_mode(). As far as I know this could
never have been returned anyway because machine__is_host(machine) was
always true due to session.machines.host being hard coded. And I'm not
sure of the relevance of the difference between PERF_RECORD_MISC_KERNEL
and PERF_RECORD_MISC_HYPERVISOR in this scenario.

The first commit is a tidy up, second fixes a bug that I found when
comparing the exception level and thread of branch records, the third
is the main fix, and the last commit is some extra error checking. 

Applies to acme/perf-tools (4e111f0cf0)
