Subject: [PATCH 5/8] perf/core: Set data->sample_flags in perf_prepare_sample()

The perf_prepare_sample() sets the perf_sample_data according to the
attr->sample_type before copying it to the ring buffer. But BPF also
wants to access the sample data so it needs to prepare the sample even
before the regular path.

That means the perf_prepare_sample() can be called more than once. Set
the data->sample_flags consistently so that it can indicate which fields
are set already and skip them if sets.

Also update the filtered_sample_type to have the dependent flags to
reduce the number of branches.

Why not update __perf_event_header__init_id() ?

My concern was the non-sample records which don't check the sample
flags at all. So I'd like to skip the write for them.

But that's not a big deal. I can move it if you want.

Thanks,
