Subject: [PATCH V6 3/8] perf: Capture branch privilege information
Date:   Fri, 10 Jun 2022 09:20:56 +0530

Platforms like arm64 could capture privilege level information for all the
branch records. Hence this adds a new element in the struct branch_entry to
record the privilege level information, which could be requested through a
new event.attr.branch_sample_type based flag PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_PRIV_SAVE.
This flag helps user choose whether privilege information is captured.
