When enabled, all taken branch addresses are output, even if the branch
was because of a direct branch instruction. This enables reconstruction
of the program flow without having access to the memory image of the
code being executed.

Use bit 8 for the config option which would be the correct bit for
programming ETMv3. Although branch broadcast can't be enabled on ETMv3
because it's not in the define ETM3X_SUPPORTED_OPTIONS, using the
correct bit might help prevent future collisions or allow it to be
enabled if needed.
