This comment description is not relevant with the changes in this
patch, so could remove them.

This patch is to add the raw dumping for Events packet and Operation Type
packet.

Correct.

Some nitpicks for packet format checking ...

For SVE operation, the payload partten is: 0b0xxx1xx0.

So it's good to check the partten like:

  /* SVE operation subclass is: 0b0xxx1xx0 */
  if ((payload & 0x8081) == 0x80) {
     ....
  }

If later the packet format is extended, this will not introduce any
confliction.

Here should express as binary results: " FP" or " INT".

Here should express as binary results: " PRED" or " NOT-PRED".

This is incorrect.  If bits[6:4] is zero, it presents vector length is 32 bits.

Here we can check with more accurate format as defined in ARMv8 ARM:

  /* Other operation subclass is: 0b0000000x */
  if ((payload & 0xfe) == 0x0) {
     ....
  }

Here should express as binary results: " PRED" or " NOT-PRED".

Here should express as binary results: " SG" or " NOT-SG".
