So, I asked for callchains, with:

 perf record -g -e intel_bts// ls

And it got stuck somewhere, then I did a perf top to see where it was,
and got to:

  96.24%  perf    [.] intel_bts_process_queue

Annotating I get to:

  1.17 │1a0:┌─→mov    0x8(%r13),%rdx
       │    │  test   %rdx,%rdx
 98.83 │    └──je     1a0


Which is an endless loop! Source code for intel_bts_process_buffer(),
inlined there:

        while (sz > sizeof(struct branch)) {
                if (!branch->from && !branch->to)
                        continue;
                err = intel_bts_synth_branch_sample(btsq, branch);
                if (err)
                        break;
                branch += 1;
                sz -= sizeof(struct branch);
        }

Can you fix this, please, so that I can fold it into where it was
introduced, namely:
