[PATCH v8 04/22] perf arm-spe: Refactor arm_spe_get_events()

From: Leo Yan
Date: Wed Nov 11 2020 - 02:14:46 EST


In function arm_spe_get_events(), the event packet's 'index' is assigned
as payload length, but the flow is not directive: it firstly gets the
packet length from the return value of arm_spe_get_payload(), the value
includes header length (1) and payload length:

int ret = arm_spe_get_payload(buf, len, packet);

and then reduces header length from packet length, so finally get the
payload length:

packet->index = ret - 1;

To simplify the code, this patch directly assigns payload length to
event packet's index; and at the end it calls arm_spe_get_payload() to
return the payload value.
