Subject: [PATCH v1 7/7] perf cs-etm: Detect pid in VMID for kernel running at EL2

From: Suzuki K Poulose <[email protected]>

The pid of the task could be traced as VMID when the kernel is
running at EL2. Teach the decoder to look for vmid when the
context_id is invalid but we have a valid VMID.

The patch looks fine to me. I am wondering if this can be cached somewhere in
the etmq to avoid doing the search everytime we hit a CID ? Surely for a session,
this woudn't change and thus for the decoder life time.

Good suggestion, will refine for this in next version.
