perf intel-pt: Add a tree for VMCS information
Even when VMX TSC Offset is not changing (during perf record), different virtual machines can have different TSC Offsets. There is a Virtual Machine Control Structure (VMCS) for each virtual CPU, the address of which is reported to Intel PT in the VMCS packet. We do not know which VMCS belongs to which virtual machine, so use a tree to keep track of VMCS information. Then the decoder will be able to use the current VMCS value to look up the current TSC Offset.

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 Restructured Text 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.
