PMU event filter test fails on zen4 architecture because of the
unavailability of family and model check for zen4 in use_amd_pmu().
use_amd_pmu() is added to detect architectures that supports event
select 0xc2 umask 0 as "retired branch instructions".
Model ranges in is_zen1(), is_zen2() and is_zen3() are used only for
sever SOCs, so they might not cover all the model ranges which supports
retired branch instructions.
X86_FEATURE_ZEN is a synthetic feature flag specifically added to
recognize all Zen generations by commit 232afb557835d ("x86/CPU/AMD: Add
X86_FEATURE_ZEN1"). init_amd_zen_common() uses family >= 0x17 check to
enable X86_FEATURE_ZEN.
Family 17h+ is where Zen and its successors start and that event 0xc2,0
is supported on all currently released F17h+ processors as branch
instruction retired and it is true going forward to maintain the
backward compatibility for the branch instruction retired.
Since X86_FEATURE_ZEN is not recognized in selftest framework, instead
of checking family and model value for all zen architecture, "family >=
0x17" check is added in use_amd_pmu().
