Al Grant f5f8e7e55f perf cs-etm: Fix corrupt data after perf inject from
Commit 42bbabed09 ("perf tools: Add hw_idx in struct branch_stack")
changed the format of branch stacks in perf samples. When samples use
this new format, a flag must be set in the corresponding event.

Synthesized branch stacks generated from CoreSight ETM trace were using
the new format, but not setting the event attribute, leading to
consumers seeing corrupt data. This patch fixes the issue by setting the
event attribute to indicate use of the new format.

Fixes: 42bbabed09 ("perf tools: Add hw_idx in struct branch_stack")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
