A non-synthesized event might not have a branch stack if branch
stacks have been synthesized (using itrace options).
An example of that is when Intel PT records sched_switch events
for decoding purposes. Those sched_switch events do not have
branch stacks even though the Intel PT decoder may be synthesizing
other events that do due to the itrace options.
