Linux kernel source tree

Branch types and events are two different things. A branch type can be
a conditional branch, an indirect branch, a procedure call, a return, or
an exception taken, etc. The extra event information is provided for
what happens during a branch, e.g. if a branch is mispredicted or not
taken (specific to conditional branches).
To deliver information about branches, this commit separates events from
branch types. It parses branch types first, then appends event strings
embraced by the '/' character. If multiple events occur, the events is
separated with a comma (,).
Also add a minor improvement by adding char 'm' in char array for branch
mispredict event.
Below are extracted sample flags.
Before:
branch: br miss
instructions: br miss
After:
branch: jmp/miss/
instructions: jmp/miss/

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
