From: Leo Yan leo.yan@linaro.org

If an instruction range packet can generate multiple instruction samples, these samples share the same last branches; it's not necessary to copy the same last branches repeatedly for these samples within the same packet.

This patch moves out the last branches copying from function cs_etm__synth_instruction_sample(), and execute it prior to generating instruction samples.
