When the TRBE is stopped on truncating an event, we may not set the FORMAT flag, even though the size of the record is 0. Let us be consistent and not confuse the user. Always set the format flag for TRBE generated records.

PERF_AUX_FLAG_CORESIGHT_FORMAT_RAW);But why should not PERF_AUX_FLAG_CORESIGHT_FORMAT_RAW also be set on zero sized records as well ? Otherwise there are two instances during TRBE buffer management, where PERF_AUX_FLAG_TRUNCATED is marked alone without PERF_AUX_FLAG_CORESIGHT_FORMAT_RAW. Those could be changed as well.
All records (irrespective of the size) generated by the TRBE must contain the "RAW" flag. Did I miss another instance where we don't do this ?
