Subject: [PATCH 4.14 31/62] s390/perf: Change CPUM_CF return code in event init function

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

[ Upstream commit 0bb2ae1b26e1fb7543ec7474cdd374ac4b88c4da ]

The function perf_init_event() creates a new event and
assignes it to a PMU. This a done in a loop over all existing
PMUs. For each listed PMU the event init function is called
and if this function does return any other error than -ENOENT,
the loop is terminated the creation of the event fails.

If the event is invalid, return -ENOENT to try other PMUs.
