On a CPU like skylakex an uncore_iio_0 PMU may alias with
uncore_iio_free_running_0. The latter PMU doesn't support fc_mask
as a parameter and so pmu_config_term fails. Typically
parse_events_add_pmu is called in a loop where if one alias succeeds
errors are ignored, however, if multiple errors occur
parse_events__handle_error will currently give a WARN_ONCE.
This change removes the WARN_ONCE in parse_events__handle_error and
makes it a pr_debug. It adds verbose messages to parse_events_add_pmu
warning that non-fatal errors may occur, while giving details on the pmu
and config terms for useful context. pmu_config_term is altered so the
failing term and pmu are present in the case of the 'unknown term'
error which makes spotting the free_running case more straightforward.
