Previously when the incorrect binary was used for decode, Perf would
silently continue to generate incorrect samples. With OpenCSD 1.5.4 we
can enable consistency checks that do a best effort to detect a mismatch
in the image. When one is detected a warning is printed and sample
generation stops until the trace resynchronizes with a good part of the
image.

Looks good to me.
Just one question: should the flag ETM4_OPFLG_PKTDEC_AA64_OPCODE_CHK be set
according to ETM version? E.g. it should be only set for ETMv4 or this is
fine for ETE as well.
Thanks,
Leo

I asked Mike the same question about ETMv3 and he said none of the flags
overlap and it was ok to always pass them. So I assume the same applies
to ETE as well.
