Subject: [PATCH 10/14] perf, core: simplify need branch stack check

event->attr.branch_sample_type is non-zero no matter branch stack
is enabled explicitly or is enabled implicitly. So we can use it
toreplace intel_pmu_needs_lbr_smpl(). This avoids duplicating code
that implicitly enables the LBR.
