[ Upstream commit 16160c1946b702dcfa95ef63389a56deb2f1c7cb ]

Problem: perf did not show branch predicted/mispredicted bit in brstack.

Output of perf -F brstack for profile collected

Before:

 0x4fdbcd/0x4fdc03/-/-/-/0
 0x45f4c1/0x4fdba0/-/-/-/0
 0x45f544/0x45f4bb/-/-/-/0

 0x7f66901cc1e8/0x7f66901cc1fc/-/-/-/0

After:

 0x4fdbcd/0x4fdc03/P/-/-/0
 0x45f4c1/0x4fdba0/P/-/-/0
 0x45f544/0x45f4bb/P/-/-/0
 0x45f555/0x45f53c/P/-/-/0
 0x7f66901cc24b/0x45f555/P/-/-/0
 0x7f66901cc22e/0x7f66901cc23d/P/-/-/0
 0x7f66901cc1ff/0x7f66901cc20f/P/-/-/0
 0x7f66901cc1e8/0x7f66901cc1fc/P/-/-/0

Cause:

As mentioned in Software Development Manual vol 3, 17.4.8.1,
IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES[5:0] indicates the format of the address that is
stored in the LBR stack. Knights Landing reports 1 (LBR_FORMAT_LIP) as
its format. Despite that, registers containing FROM address of the branch,
do have MISPREDICT bit but because of the format indicated in
IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES[5:0], LBR did not read MISPREDICT bit.

Solution:

Teach LBR about above Knights Landing quirk and make it read MISPREDICT bit=
.
