[PATCH v3 2/5] perf/x86/intel: Record branch type

Tue Apr 11 20:56:30 AEST 2017
Perf already has support for disassembling the branch instruction
and using the branch type for filtering. The patch just records
the branch type in perf_branch_entry.
Before recording, the patch converts the x86 branch classification
to common branch classification.
