Adrian Hunter a58a057ce6 perf intel-pt: Fix duplicate branch after CBR
CBR events can result in a duplicate branch event, because the state
type defaults to a branch. Fix by clearing the state type.

Example: trace 'sleep' and hope for a frequency change

 Before:

   $ perf record -e intel_pt//u sleep 0.1
   [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
   [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.034 MB perf.data ]
   $ perf script --itrace=bpe > before.txt

 After:

   $ perf script --itrace=bpe > after.txt
   $ diff -u before.txt after.txt

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.
