What kernel have you used for testing this? 4.5-rc? I'm having trouble
with intel_pt with 4.5.0-rc4 :-\

And while this looks like a great feature to have, have you considered
using what is in tools/perf/util/intel-pt-decoder/ somehow, so that we
don't end up adding one more dependency on another external library?

It would be great if we could, if done that way, perhaps at some point
we could stop using objdump somehow :-\
