[PATCH V15 8/8] perf: test: Extend branch stack sampling test for Arm64 BRBE
Anshuman Khandual

Thu Nov 30 21:39:06 PST 2023
From: James Clark <james.clark at arm.com>
Add Arm64 BRBE-specific testing to the existing branch stack sampling test.
The test currently passes on the Arm FVP RevC model, but no hardware has
been tested yet.
