[PATCH] ARC: perf: map 'ijmptak' to generic 'branches' event

From: Eugeniy Paltsev
Date: Mon Dec 17 2018 - 04:54:32 EST


Map 'ijmptak' event (all jump instructions that are taken)
instead of 'ijmp' event (all jump and branch instructions)
to generic 'branches' event as taken jump is more interesting
metric for us due to the possible significantly greater
overhead of taken jumps.

'ijmptak' event is available on both ARCv1 and ARCv2.
