perf cs-etm: Generate branch sample for exception packet
The exception packet appears as one element with 'elem_type' == OCSD_GEN_TRC_ELEM_EXCEPTION or OCSD_GEN_TRC_ELEM_EXCEPTION_RET, which is present for exception entry and exit respectively. The decoder sets the packet fields 'packet->exc' and 'packet->exc_ret' to indicate the exception packets; but exception packets don't have a dedicated sample type and shares the same sample type CS_ETM_RANGE with normal instruction packets. As a result, the exception packets are taken as normal instruction packets and this introduces confusion in mixing different packet types. Furthermore, these instruction range packets will be processed for branch samples only when 'packet->last_instr_taken_branch' is true, otherwise they will be omitted, this can introduce a mess for exception and exception returning due to not having the complete address range info for context switching. To process exception packets properly, this patch introduces two new sample types: CS_ETM_EXCEPTION and CS_ETM_EXCEPTION_RET; these two types of packets will be handled by cs_etm__exception(). The function cs_etm__exception() forces setting the previous CS_ETM_RANGE packet flag 'prev_packet->last_instr_taken_branch' to true, this matches well with the program flow when the exception is trapped from user space to kernel space, no matter if the most recent flow has branch taken or not; this is also safe for returning to user space after exception handling. After exception packets have their own sample type, the packet fields 'packet->exc' and 'packet->exc_ret' aren't needed anymore, so remove them.
