s390/cpumf: Handle events cycles and instructions identical

Browse source

Events CPU_CYCLES and INSTRUCTIONS can be submitted with two different
perf_event attribute::type values:
 - PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE: when invoked via perf tool predefined events name
   cycles or cpu-cycles or instructions.
 - pmu->type: when invoked via perf tool event name cpu_cf/CPU_CYLCES/ or
   cpu_cf/INSTRUCTIONS/. This invocation also selects the PMU to which
   the event belongs.
Handle both type of invocations identical for events CPU_CYLCES and
INSTRUCTIONS. They address the same hardware.
The result is different when event modifier exclude_kernel is also set.
Invocation with event modifier for user space event counting fails.

Output before:

 # perf stat -e cpum_cf/cpu_cycles/u -- true

 Performance counter stats for 'true':

   <not supported>      cpum_cf/cpu_cycles/u

Output after:
 # perf stat -e cpum_cf/cpu_cycles/u -- true

 Performance counter stats for 'true':

           349,613      cpum_cf/cpu_cycles/u
