Building perf with CORESIGHT=1 and the optional CSTRACE_RAW=1 enables additional debug printing of raw trace data when using command:- perf report --dump.
This raw trace prints the CoreSight formatted trace frames, which may be used to investigate suspected issues with trace quality / corruption / decode.
These frames are not present in ETE + TRBE trace. This fix removes the unnecessary call to print these frames.
Due to an addtional fault with the OpenCSD library, this call when ETE/TRBE are being decoded will cause a segfault in perf. This fix also prevents that problem for perf using older (<= 1.8.0 version) OpenCSD libraries.
