commit 1d5c7880992a06679585e7e568cc679c0c5fd4f2 upstream.
Perf errors out when sampling instructions:ppp.
$ perf record -e instructions:ppp -- true
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument)
for event (instructions:ppp).
The instruction PDIR is only available on the fixed counter 0. The event
constraint has been updated to fixed0_constraint in
icl_get_event_constraints(). The Sapphire Rapids codes unconditionally
error out for the event which is not available on the GP counter 0.
Make the instructions:ppp an exception.
Fixes: 61b985e3e775 ("perf/x86/intel: Add perf core PMU support for Sapphire Rapids")
