Subject: [RT] LTP perf_event_open02 fails on v4.19.59-rt24

Not sure if this has been reported before, but we noticed that LTP test
perf_event_open02 [1] fails on 4.19.59-rt24 (and of course passes on the
corresponding stable kernel):

I just started looking into this issue, but thought to report early as
