When running perf-stat command on Intel hybrid platform, perf-stat
reports the following errors.
sudo taskset -c 7 ./perf stat -vvvv -e cpu_atom/instructions/ sleep 1
Opening: cpu/cycles/:HG

perf_event_attr:

Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
<not counted> cpu_atom/instructions/
It looks the cpu_atom/instructions/ event can't be enabled on atom pmu
even the process is pinned on atom core. The investigation shows that
exclusive_event_init() helper always returns -EBUSY error in the perf
event creation. That's strange since the atom pmu should not be a
exclusive PMU.
Further investigation shows the issue is introduced by commit 97588df87b56
("perf/x86/intel: Add common intel_pmu_init_hybrid()"). The commit
originally intents to clear the bit PERF_PMU_CAP_AUX_OUTPUT from pmu
capabilities if intel_cap.pebs_output_pt_available is not set, but it
incorrectly uses 'or' operation and leads to all pmu capabilities bits
are set to 1 except bit PERF_PMU_CAP_AUX_OUTPUT.
Testing this fix on Intel hybrid platforms, the observed issues
disappear.
