Adrian Hunter 0cd032d3b5 perf script: Fix brstackinsn for AUXTRACE
brstackinsn must be allowed to be set by the user when AUX area data has
been captured because, in that case, the branch stack might be
synthesized on the fly. This fixes the following error:

Before:

  $ perf record -e '{intel_pt//,cpu/mem_inst_retired.all_loads,aux-sample-size=8192/pp}:u' grep -rqs jhgjhg /boot
  [ perf record: Woken up 19 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.274 MB perf.data ]
  $ perf script -F +brstackinsn --xed --itrace=i1usl100 | head
  Display of branch stack assembler requested, but non all-branch filter set
  Hint: run 'perf record -b ...'

After:

  $ perf record -e '{intel_pt//,cpu/mem_inst_retired.all_loads,aux-sample-size=8192/pp}:u' grep -rqs jhgjhg /boot
  [ perf record: Woken up 19 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 2.274 MB perf.data ]
  $ perf script -F +brstackinsn --xed --itrace=i1usl100 | head

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
