* Snapshot branch stack on software events.
*
* Branch stack can be very useful in understanding software events. For
* example, when a long function, e.g. sys_perf_event_open, returns an
* errno, it is not obvious why the function failed. Branch stack could
* provide very helpful information in this type of scenarios.
*
* On software event, it is necessary to stop the hardware branch recorder
* fast. Otherwise, the hardware register/buffer will be flushed with
* entries of the triggering event. Therefore, static call is used to
* stop the hardware recorder.
