perf intel-pt: Fix duplicate branch after CBR
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
CBR events can result in a duplicate branch event, because the state
type defaults to a branch. Fix by clearing the state type.

Example: trace 'sleep' and hope for a frequency change

 Before:

   $ perf record -e intel_pt//u sleep 0.1
   [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
   [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.034 MB perf.data ]
   $ perf script --itrace=bpe > before.txt

 After:

   $ perf script --itrace=bpe > after.txt
   $ diff -u before.txt after.txt
