Kan Liang 950ecdc672 perf/x86/intel: Fix broken fixed event constraints extension
Unnecessary multiplexing is triggered when running an "instructions"
event on an MTL.

perf stat -e cpu_core/instructions/,cpu_core/instructions/ -a sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

       115,489,000      cpu_core/instructions/                (50.02%)
       127,433,777      cpu_core/instructions/                (49.98%)

       1.002294504 seconds time elapsed

Linux architectural perf events, e.g., cycles and instructions, usually
have dedicated fixed counters. These events also have equivalent events
which can be used in the general-purpose counters. The counters are
precious. In the intel_pmu_check_event_constraints(), perf check/extend
the event constraints of these events. So these events can utilize both
fixed counters and general-purpose counters.

The following cleanup commit:

  97588df87b ("perf/x86/intel: Add common intel_pmu_init_hybrid()")

forgot adding the intel_pmu_check_event_constraints() into update_pmu_cap().
The architectural perf events cannot utilize the general-purpose counters.

The code to check and update the counters, event constraints and
extra_regs is the same among hybrid systems. Move
intel_pmu_check_hybrid_pmus() to init_hybrid_pmu(), and
emove the duplicate check in update_pmu_cap().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
