Spectrum-2 and later ASICs support sampling of packets by mirroring to the CPU with probability. There are several advantages compared to the legacy dedicated sampling mechanism: * Extra metadata per-packet: Egress port, egress traffic class, traffic class occupancy and end-to-end latency * Ability to sample packets on egress / per-flow Convert Spectrum-2 and later ASICs to perform sampling by mirroring to the CPU with probability. Subsequent patches will add support for egress / per-flow sampling and expose the extra metadata.
