perf/amd/uncore: Replace manual sampling check with CAP_NO_INTERRUPT flag
Enable the sampling check in kernel/events/core.c::perf_event_open(), which returns the more appropriate -EOPNOTSUPP. BEFORE: $ sudo perf record -a -e instructions,l3_request_g1.caching_l3_cache_accesses true Error: The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (l3_request_g1.caching_l3_cache_accesses). /bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information. With nothing relevant in dmesg. AFTER: $ sudo perf record -a -e instructions,l3_request_g1.caching_l3_cache_accesses true Error: l3_request_g1.caching_l3_cache_accesses: PMU Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts.
