perf cs-etm: Use previous thread for branch sample source IP

Browse source

Branch samples currently use the IP of the previous packet as the from
IP, and the IP of the current packet as the to IP. But it incorrectly
uses the current thread. In some cases like a jump into a different
exception level this will attribute to the incorrect process.

Fix it by tracking the previous thread in the same way the previous
packet is tracked.

Committer notes:

Resolved conflicts with:

  perf addr_location: Add init/exit/copy functions
  perf thread: Add accessor functions for thread
