Ironic how W0718 warns about precisely the type of "green failure" issues that this PR is trying to fix... Why not simply catch the specific parsing exception?

This script is a additional tool for getting stats from mtrace file, not a main test. That's why we decided to "ignore" lines that couldn't be parsed for whatever reason - hence the broad exception.

You are missing the point. There is a limited number of parsing exception types this small piece of code can raise and that can be expected here. It would be easy to list them here. Catching any exception instead, including unexpected exceptions unrelated to parsing means hiding bugs in this code. This is what W0718 means.
Amusingly, this is a similar sort of issue that this PR is fixing.

I think the timestamp parsing has become long enough to deserve its own, separate function. The nesting of try blocks and the significant indentation make the code less readable.
In case of a faulty line in mtrace, the sof_perf_analyzer.py script will log a warning and move on, instead of failing. Signed-off-by: Emilia Kurdybelska <emiliax.kurdybelska@intel.com>

In case of a faulty mtrace line the sof_perf_analyzer.py script will log warning and move on, instead of failing the script (and the test).
