My purpose is to use a same place to calculate the instruction
size, rather than to spread the duplicate codes in several different
functions.

Sorry that I forgot to commit my final change into patch 02.

I planed to use cs_etm__instr_size() in patch 02; patch 02 has
function cs_etm__add_stack_event(), which also needs to get the
instruction size when it sends stack event.

After apply patch 02, tools/perf/util/cs-etm.c will have below three
functions to caculate instruction size; this is the main reason I want
to refactor the code for instruction size.

cs_etm__instr_addr()
cs_etm__copy_insn()
cs_etm__add_stack_event()

If this lets code more difficult to understand, will drop it.

Thanks,
Leo Yan
