    perf intel-pt: Adjust sample flags for VM-Exit
    
    [ Upstream commit 695fc4510615f8db40ebaf7a2c011f0a594b5f77 ]
    
    Use the change of NR to detect whether an asynchronous branch is a VM-Exit.
    
    Note VM-Entry is determined from the vmlaunch or vmresume instruction,
    in which case, sample flags will show "VMentry" even if the VM-Entry fails.
