Subject: perf intel-pt: Fix system_wide dummy event for hybrid
From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 6cef7dab3e2e5cb23a13569c3880c0532326748c upstream.
User space tasks can migrate between CPUs, so when tracing selected CPUs,
system-wide sideband is still needed, however evlist->core.has_user_cpus
is not set in the hybrid case, so check the target cpu_list instead.
Fixes: 7d189cadbeebc778 ("perf intel-pt: Track sideband system-wide when needed")
