perf intel-pt: Packet splitting can happen only on 32-bit
...
Data is copied when the trace is stopped, so packets are never split
between buffers except when processing if the buffer cannot fit in the
address space which can only happen on 32-bit systems. Change the logic
to reflect that.

perf intel-pt: Fix CYC timestamp calculation after OVF
...
CYC packet timestamp calculation depends upon CBR which was being
cleared upon overflow (OVF). That can cause errors due to failing to
synchronize with sideband events. Even if a CBR change has been lost,
the old CBR is still a better estimate than zero. So remove the clearing
of CBR.

perf intel-pt: Fix timestamp following overflow

timestamp_insn_cnt is used to estimate the timestamp based on the number of
instructions since the last known timestamp.
If the estimate is not accurate enough decoding might not be correctly
synchronized with side-band events causing more trace errors.
However there are always timestamps following an overflow, so the
estimate is not needed and can indeed result in more errors.
Suppress the estimate by setting timestamp_insn_cnt to zero.

perf intel-pt: Do not use TSC packets for calculating CPU cycles to TSC
...
CBR (core-to-bus ratio) packets provide an indication of CPU frequency. A
more accurate measure can be made by counting the cycles (given by CYC
packets) in between other timing packets (either MTC or TSC). Using TSC
packets has at least 2 issues: 1) timing might have stopped (e.g. mwait) or
2) TSC packets within PSB+ might slip past CYC packets. For now, simply do
not use TSC packets for calculating CPU cycles to TSC. That leaves the case
where 2 MTC packets are used, otherwise falling back to the CBR value.
