Subject: [PATCH v2 09/20] drivers/perf: perf/core: remove unnecessary checks for exclusion

For drivers that do not support context exclusion we do not
advertise the PERF_PMU_CAP_EXCLUDE capability. This ensures
that perf will prevent us from handling events where any exclusion
flags are set. Let's remove the now unnecessary check for
exclusion flags.
