perf/x86: Fix non-sampling (counting) events on certain x86 platforms
Perf doesn't work at perf stat for hardware events on certain x86 platforms: $perf stat -- sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1': 16.44 msec task-clock # 0.016 CPUs utilized 2 context-switches # 121.691 /sec 0 cpu-migrations # 0.000 /sec 54 page-faults # 3.286 K/sec <not supported> cycles <not supported> instructions <not supported> branches <not supported> branch-misses The reason is that the check in x86_pmu_hw_config() for sampling events is unexpectedly applied to counting events as well. It should only impact x86 platforms with limit_period used for non-PEBS events. For Intel platforms, it should only impact some older platforms, e.g., HSW, BDW and NHM.
