Namhyung Kim 9dc9855f18 perf arm-spe: Track task context switch for cpu-mode events
When perf report synthesize events from ARM SPE data, it refers to
current cpu, pid and tid in the machine.  But there's no place to set
them in the ARM SPE decoder.  I'm seeing all pid/tid is set to -1 and
user symbols are not resolved in the output.

  # perf record -a -e arm_spe_0/ts_enable=1/ sleep 1

  # perf report -q | head

Like Intel PT, add context switch records to track task info.  As ARM
SPE support was added later than PERF_RECORD_SWITCH_CPU_WIDE, I think
we can safely set the attr.context_switch bit and use it.

README

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.
