perf intel-pt: Use itrace error flags to suppress some errors
The itrace "e" option may be followed by flags which affect what errors will or will not be reported. Each flag must be preceded by either '+' or '-'. The flags supported by Intel PT are: -o Suppress overflow errors -l Suppress trace data lost errors For example, for errors but not overflow or data lost errors: --itrace=e-o-l Suppressing those errors can be useful for testing and debugging because they are not due to decoding.
