When testing this on a 2P 3rd Generation EPYC System (2 x 64/128T), I
ran into an issue where it seems like the energy reporting for the
system is coming from the second socket. Following are the CPUs on each
socket of the system:

     Node 0: 0-63,   128-191
     Node 1: 64-127, 192-255

Following are the experiments I ran:

   $ # Run a busy loop on each thread of the first socket
   $ for i in `seq 0 63` `seq 128 191`; do taskset -c $i ~/scripts/loop & done
   $ sudo perf stat -a --per-core -e power_per_core/energy-per-core/ -- sleep 5

   S0-D0-C0              1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S0-D0-C1              1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S0-D0-C2              1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S0-D0-C3              1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   ...
   S0-D0-C63             1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S1-D1-C0              1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S1-D1-C1              1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S1-D1-C2              1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S1-D1-C3              1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   ...
   S1-D1-C63             1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/

 From the energy data, it looks as if the system is entirely idle.

If I repeat the same, pinning the running busy loop on the threads of
second socket, I see the following:

   $ # Run a busy loop on each thread of the second socket
   $ for i in `seq 64 127` `seq 192 255`; do taskset -c $i ~/scripts/loop & done
   $ sudo perf stat -a --per-core -e power_per_core/energy-per-core/ -- sleep 5

   S0-D0-C0              1              11.79 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S0-D0-C1              1              11.80 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S0-D0-C2              1              11.90 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S0-D0-C3              1              11.88 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   ...
   S0-D0-C63             1              11.76 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S1-D1-C0              1              11.81 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S1-D1-C1              1              11.80 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S1-D1-C2              1              11.90 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S1-D1-C3              1              11.88 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   ...
   S1-D1-C63             1              11.76 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/

The whole system seems to be busy this time around. I've verified that
only half the system is busy using htop in either case.

Running some more experiments, I see the following:

   $ taskset -c 1 ~/scripts/loop& # First thread from Core 1, Socket
   $ sudo perf stat -a --per-core -e power_per_core/energy-per-core/ -- sleep 5

   S0-D0-C0              1               0.02 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S0-D0-C1              1               0.21 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S0-D0-C2              1               0.20 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S0-D0-C3              1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   ...
   (Seemingly idle system)


   $ taskset -c 65 ~/scripts/loop&
   $ sudo perf stat -a --per-core -e power_per_core/energy-per-core/ -- sleep 5

   S0-D0-C0              1               0.01 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S0-D0-C1              1              16.73 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S0-D0-C2              1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S0-D0-C3              1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   ...
   S0-D0-C63             1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S1-D1-C0              1               0.01 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S1-D1-C1              1              16.73 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S1-D1-C2              1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   S1-D1-C3              1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/
   ...
   S1-D1-C63             1               0.00 Joules power_per_core/energy-per-core/

   (Core 1 from both sockets look busy reporting identical energy
    values)

Hope it helps narrow down the issue.

P.S. I tested these changes on top of tip:perf/core
